If you’ve found yourself here, you may be searching for answers about your thoughts, feelings, or behaviours—and considering therapy or counselling as a way forward. You might be struggling with anxiety, depression, or a persistent sense that something just doesn’t feel right. Perhaps you’ve noticed patterns that hold you back or affect your relationships, work, or overall wellbeing.
Psychodynamic therapy offers a supportive, non-judgemental space to explore these experiences in depth. Through counselling, we can begin to understand the underlying causes of emotional distress, helping you make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface. Taking the step to seek therapy is a meaningful move towards greater self-awareness, emotional clarity, and lasting change—supporting you to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Regular weekly psychodynamic counselling sessions provide a safe, consistent space to explore anxiety, depression, and emotional challenges, helping you gain deeper self-awareness, understand unhelpful patterns, and overcome what may be holding you back from living a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Child and adolescent counselling provides a safe, supportive space for children and young people to explore their thoughts and feelings, helping them manage anxiety, build emotional resilience, and make sense of challenges affecting their wellbeing and development.
Helping you identify triggers, develop coping strategies, and regain control over anxiety and stress in daily life.
Grief counselling offers compassionate, professional support to help you process loss, navigate bereavement, and work through difficult emotions, empowering you to heal and move forward at your own pace.
Choosing the right therapist or counsellor can feel overwhelming, so I aim to make the process of starting therapy simple and accessible. You can begin by emailing me to arrange a free initial consultation, giving you the opportunity to ask questions and explore how counselling can support you—without any obligation.
If you decide to move forward, we will agree on a regular weekly therapy session that fits your schedule. I offer psychodynamic therapy, a form of counselling that helps you understand how past experiences may be influencing your current thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Through consistent weekly sessions, you can develop deeper self-awareness, work through challenges such as anxiety or depression, and make meaningful, lasting changes. Therapy is a dedicated space for you—an ongoing investment in your mental health, wellbeing, and personal growth.
I offer counselling and therapy to support a range of emotional difficulties, including anxiety, depression, OCD, ow mood, anger, guilt, and a general sense of not feeling quite right. Through therapy, you can begin to understand the underlying causes of these feelings, develop healthier ways of coping, and build greater self-awareness. Counselling also helps you explore relationship challenges, improve communication, and create more fulfilling connections, supporting your overall emotional wellbeing and helping you move towards a more balanced and meaningful life.
A little bit about me…..I have over 20 years experience working in schools with young people – and truly believe that accessing emotional support is life changing. I work as a therapist in a secondary school for three days a week, and in the evenings I have a private practice where I enjoy working with adults and adolescents – I love the variety of therapeutic work, and consider it a privilege helping you to navigate whatever emotional difficulty you face.

I bet you do….here are some of the most common questions regarding counselling…..
What are the steps if I have decided I want to go ahead with some talking therapy with you? Simple! Contact me and we can arrange an informal, no obligation chat.
How much are the sessions? – good question! With young people for short sessions, counselling starts at £40 for 30 minutes. With adults, it’s £65, although i do offer concessions if you are struggling with money right now.
Am I contracted to attend each session?– No, you are free to leave whenever you want, although if we have been working together a long time, it’s always good to end therapy properly, making time and space to think about how far you have come.
Where does the therapy take place? So you have two locations to choose from (or Zoom if you are not in North London) – I have a beautiful, purpose built therapy space in my garden – it’s secluded and discreet in Enfield, EN2 – or alternatively in Stoke Newington, Hackney N16.
How long does therapy take? – another good question! I work both long term and short term – we can discuss after our initial meeting.
How long is each therapy session? Adults it’s 50 minutes, but with adolescents, there is more flexibility.
My approach to working with gender questioning clients. Alongside my adult clients in private practice, I work in a secondary school setting in Hackney, where the issue around gender questioning is increasingly very present, and thus I have realized that gaining an understanding about what might be going......
Let’s Talk About Shame No one has ever contacted me saying, “I think I need therapy because I feel a lot of shame.” And honestly, that’s kind of wild—because shame shows up in the therapy room all the time. I think that’s because shame is......
Is your adolescent showing signs of depression or dysregulation? Have you noticed a change in your adolescent child that is causing you to worry or perhaps make you think something is “not quite right?”. Is your young person increasingly becoming withdrawn; perhaps activities that......
Addiction If you are into dark theatre, then definitely check out David Ireland’s bleak, hilarious play about two alcoholic men and their dysfunctional relationship with alcohol (and themselves). As a therapist working in the area of addiction, I wondered how Ireland, who is best known......
