A Safe Place to Talk
A Safe Place to Talk
I have over 20 years’ experience and trained as a Counsellor as well as a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist.
Finding a therapist can be daunting. This is why, initially, I offer to meet up for 3 consecutive, weekly consultations. This will give us both an opportunity to see whether we are right for each other.
Attending therapy is about entering a safe, supportive and confidential space where you can talk about any subject that is playing on your mind. People come to see me with a wide range of difficulties. However therapy is not only for a crisis.
Coming to see a therapist will bring you relief and will also give you the opportunity to think about the changes you may want to make.
I have experience working with anxiety, depression, fears and phobias, low self-confidence, panic attacks, relationship difficulties, stress, trauma, unexplained physical symptoms, withdrawal from prescribed medication and more.
I work with clients who appreciate that lasting change is indeed possible and have the courage to forgo the false promise of a ‘quick fix’.
Sometimes we are not aware of how much we are carrying inside of us and how the weight of these unconscious thoughts and feelings can have a detrimental effect on our relationships as well as on our physical and emotional wellbeing.
However, the success of your therapy will depend largely on whom you choose as a therapist. I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) as well as the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).
My experience of attending personal therapy, led me to train as a Counsellor, after which I completed a Certificate in Systemic Therapy at the Institute of Family Therapy (IFT).
Wanting to offer my clients the opportunity to get to the root of their difficulties, which leads to lasting change, I trained at the Arbours Association in North London for a further 9 years, qualifying as a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist.

I work with people from all walks of life, but all have something in common – a wish to understand why things are the way they are and a wish to make changes in the way they experience life.
I will help you understand why you act or react to challenges in the way that you do. This will lead you to make better and healthier choices moving forward.

I work from 2 locations in North London, one based in Haringey and one in Stoke Newington.
They are easily accessible and close to many bus routes as well as train stations, such as Seven Sisters (Victoria Line), Manor House (Piccadilly Line), Stamford Hill and Stoke Newington (both on the Weaver Line).
I work with clients from across North London, the City of London and further afield. I also offer telephone counselling and online sessions via zoom.
I will provide location details when we arrange to meet for our first consultation.
My fees are £100 per 50 minute consultation and session. I also have some reduced-fee spaces for those on low-income.
Once we have decided to continue working together, payments can be made by monthly bank transfer.
I offer open ended as well as time limited therapy and meet with clients once or more times a week.
In addition to providing face-to-face therapy, I also offer telephone counselling and online sessions via zoom.
To book a session via zoom, telephone or face-to-face, I can be reached on my work number 07866 578 213 as well as by email.
Please leave a message and I will return your call as soon as I can to arrange an initial short phone conversation.
I would normally aim to see you as soon as possible after your initial contact, although at times I do have a waiting list.
