Individual psychotherapy

I offer free 30-minute discovery calls for potential new clients. This is a chance to meet each other, discuss what you’re looking for, go through the psychotherapy contract including fees and cancellation policy, and see if we’re a good fit.

If we decide to work together, we will establish a regular day and time for our weekly sessions. I ask for a minimum of 6 sessions to get a sense of whether my approach is suitable for you. We will meet regularly working towards the goals we agree on for as along as needed. We will evaluate and reflect on our work together regularly to make sure that we are still aligned and that our relationship is beneficial. I work relationally, therefore I encourage you to be honest and transparent about how you feel therapy is going so that we can make adjustments. While potentially uncomfortable, these conversations are usually very therapeutic in themselves and very important to have.

Should you decide that I’m not the right therapist for you, I can refer you to other qualified colleagues or appropriate therapy services in London.

I am a recognised provider under AXA Health, Aviva, and WPA. If you wish to work via your insurance policy, please get in touch to request my provider number. You will need to get approval to work with me from your provider ahead of booking sessions.

My fee for 50-minute sessions is £120. I'm committed to keeping my practice sustainable so I can show up fully present for the depth work we do together.

Regular attendance is an important part of the therapeutic process. Your session time is held exclusively for you and consistency supports our work together.

If you need to reschedule or cancel a session, please give at least 48h notice. Cancellation of sessions with less than 48 hours’ notice will incur the full cost of a session. This is because there is still a cost on my side.

Rescheduling must happen within the same week or, if the appointment is on Friday, by Tuesday the following week at the latest. Rescheduling depends on the therapist’s availability and may not always be possible.

Each client is entitled to 2 free cancellations in every 4-month period, provided at least 48h notice is given. This allowance renews every 4 months from the date of your first session and covers holidays, illness, emergencies, and other life circumstances—no explanation is required.

The cancellation fee is not a punishment. It reflects that your space is being held and our work continues even in your absence.

Beyond this allowance, the following applies:

- Cancellations beyond the 2-session allowance for that period, regardless of notice given: the full session fee is payable;

- Cancellations with less than 48h notice and no-shows: the full session fee is payable, regardless of the allowance.

You will be notified of any holidays to be taken by the therapist in advance. There may be occasions when sessions are cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances like illness or emergencies, in which case the therapist will strive to provide as much notice and/or reschedule, if possible. You will not be charged in these instances.

Therapy is a unique journey for everyone. Most people I work with prefer longterm, open-ended work to explore deeper patterns and achieve lasting transformation. However, if you need support through a difficult situation or want to focus on a specific issue, a shorter course of sessions (12-24) might be sufficient. We will get a sense of the work together during our introductory call and we will review our work regularly.

I ask for an initial commitment of six sessions to get a good sense of each other. Should we choose not to continue, I will refer you to appropriate colleagues.

I offer weekly sessions, meeting at the same time. This ensures that our work has continuity, which allows for more depth and quicker results in our work. In exceptional cases (if we’ve already worked together for a long time or if it’s short-term need due to unexpected circumstances), we may meet every other week.

I work with a wide range of challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem issues, creative blocks, grief, motherhood and identity, existential questions, and spiritual crises. My approach is particularly suited for those seeking depth-oriented therapy and a more holistic path to healing.

I have extensive training in trauma treatment (both complex PTSD/developmental trauma and PTSD) and I use a trauma-informed approach that prioritises safety, consent, collaboration, and pacing. This might involve body-oriented techniques to support nervous system regulation, as well as exploring unconscious patterns, beliefs, and parts of the self. My focus is on helping you integrate your experiences at your own pace to preventing retraumatisation, as well as creating new behavioural pathways that allow for more positive experiences. This is very sensitive work, so if we do trauma work together, I will share helpful resources and I will explain the process in depth so that you feel safe to engage with it.

Yes, everything we discuss in therapy is confidential. The only exceptions are if I am concerned about your safety or someone else's, or if ordered by a court of law, in which case I may need to break confidentiality in line with legal and ethical guidelines. I will always discuss this with you if such a situation arises. This is standard practice that all psychotherapists adhere to and we will expand on it during our initial session.

I offer integration sessions for those processing expanded states of consciousness—whether from plant medicines, guided journeys, or spontaneous experiences. My approach is grounded in harm reduction, depth psychology, and somatic work.

I do not facilitate psychedelic experiences or provide access to substances. These sessions are focused on helping you make meaning of your experience, integrate its insights into your life in grounded and embodied ways, and navigate any difficult material that may have surfaced.

I hold a Post-graduate Diploma in Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapy with CCPE (2021-2024) and a certification with Sensorimotor Psychotherapy - Levels 1 and 2 (Trauma and Developmental Injury), as well as significant additional training in trauma, mindfulness, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and spirituality, which you read on my about page.

I am accredited as a trainee psychotherapist with the UKCP, abiding by their ethical code, and I am currently working towards my full accreditation with them.

If you’re unable to afford therapy right now, there are other options for support:

• Low-Cost Services: Many organisations offer free or low-cost therapy with trainee psychotherapists in clinical supervision. Here are some recommendations: Freshstart Psychotherapy (low-cost), Home-start (free therapy for parents with young children in some London areas), Help Counselling (low cost), the CCPE Clinic (low cost), Mind (therapy and support groups), Women+health.

• Helplines and crisis support: If you need immediate help, there are free helplines available 24/7, such as Samaritans, Mind, Shout, or the NHS. You can find more helplines here.
