I see clients in person (London NW11) and by Zoom.  I offer a full initial session (50 minutes, free of charge) which is an opportunity to run through your reasons for seeking help, answer any questions you may have about therapy and, most importantly, give you an idea of whether we could work well together.

For therapy to be effective, you need to feel comfortable entrusting your therapist with your feelings, thoughts and experiences. After the initial session, I encourage potential clients to take all the time they need to decide whether to continue, recognising that people often talk to several therapists before choosing.  

If you decide to go ahead, we would meet weekly, at least initially. Sometimes clients later move to fortnightly sessions, or at other intervals. There is no obligation to commit to a particular number of sessions. 

While no list can be exhaustive, issues which I have been able to help clients to address include:

• Relationship problems 
• Anxiety, including panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias, hypervigilance
• Depression, including suicidal feelings 
• Obsessional thinking, including OCD and perfectionism
• Work issues like stress, burnout, “imposter syndrome”
• Grief, including bereavement and relationship breakdown
• Identity and self-esteem issues, such as sexuality, body image 
• Isolation/loneliness
