Counselling & Therapy

There may be times when you feel stuck, face challenges, struggle to cope, or simply want to understand yourself better. You might not always know where to turn. Speaking with a warm, non-judgmental counsellor in a safe, confidential space can offer the support you need to live a more fulfilling and resourceful life. In our sessions, we can explore your experiences and feelings, that may be troubling or distressing. I am aiming to create a respectful, supportive relationship where you can heal, grow, restore connections, and nurture yourself.

Many people believe that therapy is only for those facing major problems or trauma, but that’s not the full picture. Therapy can benefit almost anyone, no matter what’s going on in their life. Whether you're managing everyday stress, wanting to improve communication skills, building healthier relationships, navigating life transitions, focusing on personal growth, or simply trying to better understand yourself, therapy can be an invaluable tool. It can also help you overcome limiting beliefs and break harmful patterns or habits that may be holding you back. These are just a few ways therapy can make a positive impact and why you might want to consider giving it a try.

I offer a free 15 minute chat for you to see if working together would be a good fit.

My Approach

I understand that people seek therapy for many different reasons and with varied goals in mind. My approach is holistic and I integrate Transactional Analysis, Person-Centred and Gestalt approaches in my work. I emphasize a deep understanding of each client’s unique life experiences, their relationship with themselves, others, and the world around them.

I deeply value the individuality of each person, believing that within you lies the potential to make the changes you seek. In our work together, I will support you during your most vulnerable moments by creating a trusting, compassionate space where you can feel free to express yourself openly. This safe environment allows you to reflect on your experiences without judgment, so you can feel truly heard and understood.

My approach is trauma-informed and individualized, acknowledging that each person’s journey is unique and may require different forms of support. I focus on tailoring the therapeutic process to suit your specific needs, fostering an environment that promotes healing, resilience, and personal empowerment. By addressing the whole person - mind, body, and spirit - I aim to cultivate a space where you can grow, transform, and feel truly supported in your journey toward positive change.

Qualifications

---

I hold a Diploma in Humanistic Counselling from Metanoia Institute for Counselling and Psychotherapy in London, as well as a BSc (Hons) in Reflective Therapeutic Practice from Middlesex University in London, a BACP accredited training course. Prior to these, I completed an Introduction to Counselling course at Ewert House, Oxford University. Additionally, I earned a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and Sociology from Oxford Brookes University.

Experience

---

Before establishing my private practice in 2016, I worked with clients at the Oxford Counselling Centre (OCC) and Metanoia Counselling and Psychotherapy Service (MCPS) in Ealing, London. I then transitioned into private practice, initially in North London and later focusing primarily on Oxford, offering both in-person and online sessions. Following the onset of the pandemic, I shifted to working exclusively online, providing virtual and phone sessions to a diverse, international and expat clientele from all backgrounds and age groups.

I have supported coordinators from Oxford Nightline, which is an independent support service run for and by students for Oxford Brookes and Oxford University students.

I have extensive experience working with students across various degree levels. I am dedicated to supporting them through both their academic and personal challenges during their academic years and beyond the university years, helping them transition from academic life to the realities of adulthood, employment, and independent living.

As a Women's Mental Health and Trauma-Informed Practitioner, I specialize in providing gender-specific support for women navigating challenging life experiences. My work is deeply rooted in understanding the unique, individual journeys of each woman and how these experiences shape their mental health and overall well-being.

I offer compassionate and empowering support to women from all walks of life, addressing a broad spectrum of issues, including Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder (PMAD), perinatal loss, fertility and infertility, IVF, menopause, emotional and disordered eating, body image, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), Endometriosis, and sexuality & pleasure.

Many of my clients identify as neurodivergent, or are beginning to explore whether they might be. Living in a world that often feels built for other people can bring exhaustion, self-doubt, and a deep wish to be understood. In therapy, there’s no need to mask or explain - we’ll create space to explore what truly supports you, in a way that feels authentic and manageable for your mind.

Neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism, can influence how you experience focus, connection, and emotions. It may shape how you see yourself in relationships or at work. Therapy offers a steady place to understand these patterns, reduce overwhelm, and develop ways of living that align with your natural rhythms rather than working against them.
