A space to explore, make sense of your experience, and find your way forward.
As an Integrative psychotherapist I'm interested in understanding you in the context of your relationships and experiences throughout your life. Together we can explore how your early experiences may have shaped the way you see yourself, relate to other people and respond to situations today.
We can then look at whether these patterns are still helpful, and create opportunities for you to develop new ways of understanding yourself and relating to others.
Each session lasts 50 minutes and takes place in person at my practice in NG11, or online via Zoom. My practice is quiet, comfortable, and easy to get to.
There is no set structure or agenda to each session. You bring whatever is on your mind that day — and we follow that.
Psychotherapy sessions are booked on a session-by-session basis — there is no requirement to commit to a block up front.
Sessions are typically arranged once a week, and we will naturally review how things are going as we work together.
Payment is required in advance for each session. This secures your time in the diary. Payment details will be confirmed when you book.
I accept bank transfer or cash. If you have a question about payment, please do get in touch.

Payment in advance secures your session.
Before starting, I offer a free 20-minute call by phone or video. This is a chance for us to have an informal chat, for you to ask any questions, and for both of us to get a sense of whether working together feels right. There is absolutely no pressure or obligation.
Psychotherapy can be helpful for a wide range of experiences. Here are some of the areas people often bring to sessions — though you do not need to identify with any of them to start.
Understanding how earlier experiences have shaped the way you think, feel, and relate to yourself and others today.
Exploring patterns in how you connect with others — in friendships, family, or work — and what might be getting in the way.
Making sense of what is driving your anxiety, and finding a different relationship with the thoughts and feelings that keep you stuck.
Exploring what is underneath low mood, and gently working towards a greater sense of meaning, energy, and self-compassion.
Questions of identity, self-worth, and how you see and value yourself — and why it can be so difficult to feel secure in your own skin.
Navigating change, loss, endings, and the uncertainty of what comes next — and finding your footing again.
The first session is a chance to get to know each other and for you to say something about what has brought you here. There is no set structure — just a conversation, at your pace, about whatever feels most important to say first. Many people find it comes as something of a relief.
No. Some people come to therapy with a clear difficulty they want to work through. Others come because something feels off and they are not quite sure what. Both are entirely valid starting points — you do not need to have the words for it yet.
There is no fixed answer. Some people find that a handful of sessions gives them what they need; for others, therapy is something they return to over a longer period. We will naturally review how things feel as we go along, and you are always free to take a break or end whenever you are ready.
No — they are quite different. Coaching is a practical, forward-focused partnership built around strategies and goals. Psychotherapy is more exploratory: it is about understanding your experience and making sense of patterns, and the therapeutic relationship itself is part of how change happens. If you are unsure which might suit you better, the free call is a good place to start, or you can read more on the Services page.
Sessions take place in person at my practice in NG11, or online via Zoom. If you have accessibility needs or travel difficulties, please do mention this when you get in touch — I am happy to have a conversation about how we can make it work.
If you find yourself going around in circles with the same thoughts or patterns — or if something from the past still feels like it is getting in the way — psychotherapy might be worth exploring. The free call is a low-pressure place to have that conversation. I will always be honest with you if I think a different kind of support might serve you better.
No commitment, no pressure. Just a conversation to see if working together feels right.
