About me
I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist with a first degree in psychology and a doctorate in existential psychotherapy. My academic research on crossdressing delves into issues such as sexuality, gender, identity and their connection with existential themes such as being, inauthenticity, lack of freedom and meaning. This is also reflected in my private practice, where I typically work with individuals at the intersection of social class, gender, sexuality, neurodiversity, race/ethnicity, faith, and disability, as well as the social, personal, and political contexts in which my clients find themselves.
I speak:
English
Location:
Nassau Street 19, W1W 7AF London, United Kingdom
Approach
Treatment Approaches
Existential analysisRecommended for those who are searching for deeper meaning in life or are struggling with big questions about existence, freedom, and purpose.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
I am quite open and easy to talk to, and I think I do well with people who are nervous about coming to therapy, who find it hard to open up or who have unusual issues that cause them shame. I prefer to work in a flexible, client-centred and integrative manner, drawing from different approaches, depending on your needs and preferences. I aim to create a space where you can feel safe, understood and listened to. Therapy begins by learning who and how you are, so that collaboratively we can shape ways in which you can grow, heal and change.
Experience
8 years in practice
For the last couple of years, I have enjoyed working as a psychotherapist across a variety of settings including the NHS, the voluntary sector and in private practice, providing both short-term and long-term therapy. I have worked with depression and anxiety as part of Talking Therapies in the NHS; with bereavement and loss in London, with LGBTQIA+ related issues as part of Support U in Reading, and as a general counsellor for young people at No5 in Reading. During this time, I have been fortunate to work with a diversity of clients (including asylum seekers, refugees, students and LGBTQIA+/ GSRD clients) presenting a wide range of issues and difficulties.
