About me and my therapy practice
Therapy is a journey of getting to know yourself better; the parts you love, the parts you want to let go of, and everything in between.
However, the journey can be lonely and we often find ourselves walking into the same dark alleyways time and time again. That’s where a strong therapeutic partnership can help us understand why we take the same routes, explore what other options we have, and what decisions we want to make next.
Practice description
I am a Psychotherapeutic Counselor trained at the Metanoia Institute in London. I work relationally and developmentally; building a strong therapeutic relationship and exploring together what affects you in your present and where it may have started in your past. I aim to acknowledge the impact of past decisions and events, whilst working on ways to let them go if they are no longer helpful.
I believe the therapeutic space and relationship are invaluable to understanding ourselves better, and I offer an open, non-judgmental space for you to explore issues affecting your life.
