(she/her)

​

I’m a UKCP-accredited Gestalt Psychotherapist (MSc, Metanoia Institute) and BACP-registered practitioner. I work with adults from my practice in Hertfordshire, on Harley Street in London, and online.

My approach is grounded in Gestalt therapy—a relational and experiential way of working that explores the here and now. Together, we bring awareness to your emotions, body, and relational patterns. With awareness comes the possibility of change: to step out of survival cycles, heal rupture, and live with greater clarity and authenticity.

​

Alongside my Gestalt training, I draw on further study in IoPT (Identity Oriented Psychotrauma Therapy), hypnotherapy, and body-based approaches. This breadth allows me to adapt my work to the unique needs of each client.  I have specialist experience in:

​

• Trauma recovery – working with those rebuilding safety and trust after experiences of neglect, abuse, or relational breakdown.

• Neurodivergence and neuroimmune conditions – supporting parents and families navigating hidden disabilities, PANS/PANDAS, and the profound impact of being disbelieved or misdiagnosed.

• Safeguarding and systemic trauma – providing therapy for parents facing the aftermath of Fabricated or Induced Illness (FII) allegations and other safeguarding processes, where shame and fear can fracture identity and family life.

• Complex mental health – through my NHS placement with CAPE, I supported clients living with psychosis, PTSD, schizophrenia, suicidality, and personality disorders.

​

Before training as a psychotherapist, I worked in education leadership and assessment. That background has given me a deep understanding of how identity, performance, and systemic pressures shape our lives.

What unites my work is a commitment to offering a space where you are met with empathy, curiosity, and respect. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. I believe in walking alongside you, at your pace, as you rediscover your capacity to heal, connect, and live more fully.
