I’ve worked with many people from differing nationalities, social and cultural backgrounds, as well as differing ages, genders and sexualities. Throughout my rich practice experience, I’ve grown to deeply value the infinite variety of reasons bringing you here at this moment. 

You may be considering working with me due to a specific issue. Equally, you may be considering therapy due to less defined issues troubling you. Perhaps, you’re experiencing a vague sense of discontent within yourself and/or being in the social world that’s more difficult to piece together.

Whatever brings you, I aspire to provide a caring, consistent and respectful environment where you’re met with warm curiosity and patience. We can explore what’s most relevant for you at your pace. All of this can help you tap into your personal resources for living a more fulfilling, authentic life. This prizing and uniquely shaped environment may come as a relief considering we live in a pressurised, complex world often demanding certainty and uniformity.

Overall, I see my role as your therapist as being an empathic companion, valuing all of you and your personal experiences. Alongside being an empathic companion, I’ll respond to you with authenticity and consideration to help you freely get in touch with your voice and personal capabilities. Through us working together, you can learn to build a more compassionate, empathic and satisfying relationship with yourself which, in turn, can provide the foundations of change for your life outside of our 50 minute sessions.

I offer sessions from my Dalston practice room as well as on Zoom and the telephone. I work with many clients in the Hackney area, London and the UK more widely.

For a deeper dive into my work as a UKCP registered person-centred psychotherapist, please see a description of my therapy approach, details about how our sessions might look as well as frequently asked questions.
