Integrative Therapy for Individuals & Groups
About me
I’ve worked as a therapist and group facilitator in private practice, NHS settings and The School of Life. My academic background includes a BA and MA from the University of Cambridge, a Diploma from The New School of Counselling and Psychotherapy, and a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychotherapy and Counselling from Regent's University London. I am an accredited member of the BACP.
I have a particular interest in supporting women through the many transitions and challenges that can accompany motherhood. Becoming a parent can bring profound changes to identity, relationships, work, and emotional wellbeing. Whether you are navigating pregnancy, the postpartum period, the demands of family life, or feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, guilt, or loss of self, I offer a warm and thoughtful space to explore your experience and find a way forward that feels sustainable and authentic.
I also specialise in working with people in the creative industries. Creative work often involves unique pressures: uncertainty, perfectionism, self-criticism, burnout, and the challenge of balancing creative ambition with personal wellbeing. I understand how closely creativity can be tied to identity and self-worth, and I support clients in developing greater resilience, confidence, and self-understanding while staying connected to their creative lives.
My approach
As an integrative therapist, I draw on different therapeutic approaches to meet the unique needs of each client. My work is primarily informed by psychodynamic and humanistic traditions, combining an exploration of the past with a focus on your present-day experience.
The psychodynamic aspect of my work helps us understand how early relationships, life experiences, and unconscious patterns may be shaping the way you think, feel, and relate to others today. By bringing these patterns into awareness, therapy can create opportunities for meaningful and lasting change.
Alongside this, my humanistic approach places great importance on the therapeutic relationship itself. I aim to provide a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly, deepen your self-understanding, and connect more fully with your own values and strengths.
Together, we will work at a pace that feels right for you, exploring both the difficulties you are facing and the possibilities for growth and change.
I work both online and in-person from my consulting room in West Hampstead.
Writing for Wellbeing
I’m a facilitator of Writing for Wellbeing workshops. These groups are about rediscovering our creativity and finding a calm, supportive space to connect more deeply with ourselves and others. We draw inspiration from poetry and there are guided writing invitations that focus on writing freely, with a spirit of discovery and curiosity rather than judgement.
As Robert Henri puts it: “The object isn’t to make art. it’s to be in that wonderful state which makes art inevitable.”
There is the opportunity to share some of our writing, but no expectation or pressure to do so, and all are welcome, no writing experience is necessary.
I currently have upcoming workshops with The School of Life and Clitterhouse Farm. Please get in touch for further information.

"Great workshop meeting like-minded people where I got to make space in my day and mind to use some interesting creative writing tips."
Your Questions, Answered
-
I trained as an integrative psychotherapist, which means that I draw from several theoretical perspectives to help a client in a way that is most meaningful for them. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy and instead, recognise that every client is individual in their needs.
My own theoretical integration combines psychodynamic and humanistic ways of working. The psychodynamic approach explores the way in which our past experiences are, often unconsciously, informing and shaping our present. It enables clients to identify unhelpful behavioural and emotional patterns and provide the opportunity for new choices to be made. Humanistic therapy subscribes to the belief that we are all capable of growth and positive change when given access to the right supportive conditions. This form of therapy is client-led, empathic and non-judgemental.

The first step is to get in touch via email or the contact form on my website. You can provide as much or as little information as you choose, but it may be helpful to let me know a little bit about what you are looking for and what brings you to therapy. We will then arrange a free of charge telephone consultation, lasting usually around twenty minutes. This is a chance for us to connect and for me to understand a little more about what you might be looking for from the process. It is also a chance for you to ask any questions you may have. If it feels like you want to move forwards we can schedule in our first session together.

Get in touch
Initially, you can get in touch via my online form or email. We can then arrange a telephone consultation (free of charge) in which we will discuss what you are looking for from the process and how we might best work together. I work with clients both short-term and long-term and so we can discuss what might work best for you.
