About me

I am trained to offer Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Addictions Counselling. I am experienced in helping clients with anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma, loss and improving self esteem. I work well with clients who find it difficult to let others know how they are feeling or ask for what they want or need.

I speak:

English

Location:

Mare Street 280, E8 1HE London, United Kingdom

Approach

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools to understand what is happening now, paying attention to thoughts, feelings (physical and emotional) and actions. I use Psychodynamic thinking to explore past experiences and identify ways of thinking, patterns of behaviour, adverse traumatic experiences that have contributed to how we feel and function in the present. I utilise motivational interviewing to identify what changes you might like to make and how this could be achieved.

What working with me could look like

  • What is happening for you in the present
  • How did your past experiences shape who you have become
  • What do you want your future to look like
  • What tools, experience do you have that can help
  • How can you offer yourself, empathy, compassion and grace
  • How can you accept the things you cannot control but exercise your agency to achieve your goals.
