What are your charges for Counselling and Therapy Online
Counselling and Therapy online with Zoom £80 per session
Face to Face London Bridge SE1 or Covent Garden WC2 £85

How does the counselling process start?
I offer a free 15- to 20-minute initial phone consultation to discuss the issues you’d like to work on and whether you’d prefer in-person sessions or online counseling and therapy.
How often are sessions, and how long do they last?
At the beginning of our work together, I usually recommend meeting weekly for at least 3 to 6 weeks.
You can then decide whether the sessions are useful and whether you feel you are gaining something from them.
- Online (Zoom): 60-minute sessions
- Face-to-face (London Bridge): 50-minute sessions
What sort of people do you work with?
I work with people experiencing a range of emotional and relationship difficulties, including:
Childhood experiences of abandonment, rejection, or emotional neglect, and how these continue to affect adult life.
Anxiety, anger, fear, loneliness, and emotional overwhelm.
Codependent relationship patterns, difficulty with boundaries, and reactive responses to emotional triggers.
The impact of social media, including compulsive phone checking, comparison, anxiety, and persistent feelings of not being good enough.
Fear of rejection or loss, OCD, low self-confidence, and low self-esteem.

My Approach
For more than twenty years I have worked with people experiencing anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, grief, emotional overwhelm and the lasting effects of difficult childhood experiences. Many come to therapy because they feel confused by their own reactions or find themselves repeating the same patterns despite wanting life to be different.
My work combines Psychosynthesis psychotherapy with Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). I have a particular interest in generational trauma, family dynamics and codependency, and how these influences continue to shape the way we think, feel and relate to others.
Therapy is not about endlessly analysing the past or giving advice. It is about developing a deeper understanding of yourself.
Many of the ways we cope in adulthood began as ways of surviving earlier experiences. While these strategies may once have protected us, they can later become the very patterns that keep us feeling stuck.
My role is to help you recognise these patterns with curiosity rather than criticism. As understanding grows, so does the ability to respond differently instead of automatically reacting.
Over the years I have seen people move from confusion to clarity, from self-doubt to self-understanding, and from feeling emotionally lost to feeling more grounded and emotionally resilient. As emotional foundations become stronger, people often notice positive changes in their relationships, confidence, decision-making and overall wellbeing.
I believe therapy should leave you with something that stays with you long after our sessions have ended: a deeper understanding of yourself and the confidence to meet life’s challenges from a more grounded place.
