I have worked as a mentor with young adults excluded from mainstream education, and currently volunteer as a grief counsellor attached to a hospice.

I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and follow the Ethical Framework of the BACP that protects both clients and therapists.

What might lead you to therapy?

I think that being human can be a mysterious and unsettling business, and that most of us can benefit from personal therapy at some point. There are times when your voice needs to be heard in a safe and supportive place.

You may be experiencing a particularly tough period in your life, where relationships are unsatisfying and you feel unloved, with a sense of pain and isolation and a longing for more. You may feel a deep grief or sense of loss, without a clear idea about its origin. In our work together, I offer you a committed, non-judgmental relationship, a safe space for us to explore your story from a deeper place, and an opportunity to reflect on meaning, beyond everyday identities. Creating and maintaining fulfilling and loving relationships is something we all aspire to, but this is never easy. Some of your fears and anxieties may be related to our very fragile existence as humans on planet earth in these challenging times.

Some memories can be felt deeply in our bodies, and at times I might suggest using ‘Focusing,’ body memory work, for you to explore some of the most stuck and difficult areas.

I offer an initial free 20-minute phone call. I can work in-person (London Bridge, SE1 and Peckham, SE15) and can also offer online sessions, if you prefer.
