Hello and Welcome
I am an experienced, accredited Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist offering long and short-term individual therapy with adults. I practice from Clapham North and Guildford, Surrey, all with excellent travel links.
Having worked in mental health for many years, I have worked closely with individuals with a wide range of issues, including depression, bereavement, anxiety, low self-esteem and abuse. I have a specialist interest in supporting individuals with relationship difficulties and trust, intimacy, dependency and loneliness - no matter the situation or background.
The Search for Therapy
It is not always easy to make that first step to sharing our most private thoughts and feelings...but a safe, quiet space can provide much needed time away from what is ‘outside’. This can help us to focus on what is ‘inside’ us and allow for the necessary space to reflect on our lives and anxieties.
Whatever your motivation, embarking on counselling is a thoughtful step to take, and it’s important for you to find a therapist you feel comfortable with.
How I work
Having experienced settings in the NHS, organisations, charities and private practice, I have learnt to work closely alongside my clients, growing my understanding of our humanness and the complexity of mental health.
I have experience in a spectrum of psychological difficulties:
- Perinatal (mothers-to-be) and mothers, helping explore complex feelings whilst developing coping strategies
- Relationship difficulties
- Anxiety
- Self Esteem
- Depression
- Emotional repercussions of Dyslexia
- Complex Trauma
- Abuse
All my experiences have guided me towards an attitude of deep acceptance and appreciation for those whom I work with. Working collaboratively, I encourage curious and mindful exploration of both ‘self’ and ‘other’.
Location
I practice in Clapham North, London and this is within easy reach on the Northern Line, as well as the Clapham High Street Overground. Both have easy links to the West End, the City and South East London; with buses to Clapham Junction.
My Guildford, Surrey practice is easily accessible on the Overground trains, with easy access to the Rooms.
