And welcome! I am a counsellor and psychotherapist working in private practice in Thames Ditton, Surrey KT7 and London W1.

I offer both short-term counselling and longer-term psychotherapy, and provide a warm, supportive and safe environment where you can talk over your concerns.

We all instinctively know that talking our problems through helps us when we are in distress. Most people need to process their feelings, and it’s good to talk, think and even dream about the issues on your mind. It is most helpful to do this with a trained listener who can help you gain new self-awareness and insights so that you can move forward with your life more quickly. All sorts of people now go to counselling or psychotherapy and find it very helpful in resolving a broad range of personal issues.

There are many different types of talking therapy available these days. I am an integrative relational therapist, meaning that I bring together certain aspects of different approaches that I believe work better together, including person-centred, humanistic, psychodynamic and CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy). I can therefore also tailor my way of working to what you need, while understanding that the relationship between us is a vital factor in the success of your sessions.
