Currently I have appointments available on Thursdays.  

I offer low cost appointments to students (up to 20 sessions for £45 per session).

I am a leading psychotherapist and counsellor in Edinburgh, with over 20 years of experience. I am deeply passionate about the transformative power of therapy. 

My approach is grounded in a deep sense of curiosity and a genuine desire to understand your unique experience. I bring a calm, thoughtful presence to each session, creating a space where you can feel safe, heard, and supported and where we can collaborate to explore your thoughts, emotions and challenges.  I am a psychodynamic therapist which means that, when relevant, I will think about your whole story as well as the things that are currently affecting your day-to-day life.

I’m tenacious in my belief that change is possible and that therapy can be a powerful tool for growth. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply looking to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, I’m here to help.   

I offer both long-term psychotherapy and medium term counselling.  Sometimes it’s hard to know which is the best fit for you and this is something that we can discuss in our initial appointment.

I offer a bespoke service to students as I know that affordability for good quality counselling can be an issue.  I have over ten years of experience working in a student counselling service.

I am an accredited member of the Íø±¬ÃÅ and work within their ethical framework. I am a qualified counselling supervisor and tutor and I hold an MSc in Counselling Studies.  

I run my private practice from a comfortable room in the West End of Edinburgh, where you will feel safe and secure and where we will be free from interruption.

My therapy room is on the second floor; if you have restricted mobility, please let me know and we can discuss the option of telephone counselling.

My therapy room is within walking distance of public transport links.

If you think I can help, the first step is to get in touch.  Please provide a brief summary of why you're looking for psychotherapy  or counselling. 

I will get back to you as soon as possible to arrange a free 20 minute telephone conversation. 

If we decide to work together, we will arrange a regular time and day to meet for weekly sessions. This will be your allocated time-slot every week.

At that stage I will ask you to fill in your contact details and an emergency contact, and I will send some additional important information relating to procedures.

I look forward to hearing from you.
