- BACP
I’m a qualified Psychologist and Psychodynamic Psychotherapist, registered in the United Kingdom, with over 10 years of clinical experience supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, family conflicts, low self-esteem, bereavement and loss, life transitions, and the lasting impact of trauma or emotional neglect. I also support individuals struggling with identity/sexuality questions, existential concerns, or simply feeling “stuck” and wanting to live with more clarity and purpose.
My therapeutic style is warm, respectful, and insight-oriented. I bring curiosity and compassion into each session, aiming to understand not just what is happening on the surface, but what lies underneath. I work integratively, combining psychodynamic therapy with evidence-based approaches such as Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) and relational coaching techniques where appropriate. I tailor each therapeutic process to meet your specific needs, working at a pace that feels safe and meaningful for you.
I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself can be a healing space—one where new insights can emerge and inner resources can be rediscovered and I am here to support you.
I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
