Diploma in Person-centred Counselling, certified Focusing-Oriented Therapist
I’m passionate about how counselling can help people feel less isolated, gain clarity, and find their own answers. I work with adults, with a special focus on those who are feeling lost or whose needs have got overlooked in life. I also work with neurodiversity, especially with developing self-knowledge and self-compassion. I can work with those who have had an adult/late diagnosis, are exploring if they might be, or simply offer a space where there is a background understanding of neurodivergence, whatever the issues you want to bring.
I believe that everyone has feelings that matter, whatever masks they wear or however other people see them. We all face challenges in our work, study, and relationships, and moments of crisis can bring up old emotional pain, self-doubt, and feeling the odd-one out.
I know from my own experiences how transformative it can be to have someone truly see and hear you. If you would like to reconnect with who you are, develop self-acceptance and confidence, or work through a particular issue with someone calm and understanding, I’ll hope you consider working with me.
I have been in private practice since 2018, and specialise in neurodiversity, especially autism. I also have several years experience across different agencies working with survivors of violence against women and girls, and domestic abuse, and can work in a trauma-aware way.
I am from a mixed background, and previously worked as a teacher in different communities in London. I value diversity and welcome and acknowledge the diverse experiences and backgrounds of all my clients.
My approach
I work with the person-centred approach, trusting you to be your own best expert and offering my acceptance, non-judgement, and authenticity. We will sit together and talk as I begin to understand the world from your point of view. This approach can be gentle and supportive, and we will go at a pace that is right for you.
With focusing-oriented therapy I bring awareness to the body, and the still-forming sense of what can’t quite yet be put into words. This approach also holds a great deal of compassion for the self and for difficult feelings and memories, and can involve parts work and form a way to work with trauma. I support clients to find the right distance to be in relationship with, but not overwhelmed by, what emerges.
In addition I can help with grounding and self-regulation, including for those with sensory and other regulation issues. Each offer is unique to each client, as we work together to find what suits you best.
