About me and my therapy practice
I am an Integrative Psychotherapist working with adults in North London to bring clarity and understanding to the causes as well as the symptoms of mental distress, finding the most appropriate approach to support your individual needs.
I work using a range of therapeutic approaches, including psychodynamic, (including attachment-based theory), person-centred and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
I hold a Master’s Degree in Integrative Arts Therapy and an Advanced Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Studies and Skills. I am registered with the HCPC the Íø±¬ÃÅ. and UKCP. I have worked as a psychotherapist within the NHS, and across a number of mental health charities including MIND.
Practice description
People come to therapy for many reasons, including difficulties with relationships or family life, challenging events such as bereavement, loss or trauma, and emotional distress such as anxiety, depression and obsessive thinking. I offer a collaborative and compassionate approach, with your goals and needs at the forefront: a safe and non-judgmental space where you can give voice to your life experiences and unhelpful thoughts, and we can explore together how best to understand them and make changes. Sometimes long-held beliefs about ourselves and where we fit in deserve to be challenged, allowing us to stop what happened in the past from dictating our future. Therapy can help you to live your best life – which is what we all deserve.My first session
During the first session I will ask you to give me an overview of what has brought you to therapy and I will form an initial assessment. It also importantly allows us the opportunity for us both to see if we feel like a good fit and are happy to consider working together.
