I have now come to the end of my training in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy and Analytical Psychology at the Association for Group and Individual Psychotherapy (AGIP) and I am working towards my full accreditation with the UKCP. This was an extensive, in-depth training, at a post-graduate level, that lasted six years and proceeded my BSc degree in Forensic Psychology.

As a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, I am dedicated to assisting individuals in their journey towards understanding and healing from a wide array of complex psychological challenges. Some of the issues I specialize in include:

ADHD, depression, and anxiety.
Stress management.
Childhood trauma, particularly developmental trauma.
Attachment and separation difficulties.
Identity exploration, relationship dynamics, and interpersonal issues.
Coping with employment and financial difficulties.
Post-natal depression and the challenges of new parenthood.
Fertility problems and coping with miscarriages.
Addressing gender and sexuality concerns.
Navigating the process of grief and loss.
Managing anger and emotional difficulties.
Addressing issues related to migration, acculturation, and deportation.
Working through marital problems and relationship struggles.
Addressing feelings of loneliness.
Understanding and managing difficult dynamics in relationships.
Improving relationships and becoming a better version of yourself.
Learning to let go of the past and embrace personal growth.

An essential aspect of my practice as a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist is my commitment to working with individuals from all walks of life, regardless of their cultural or religious backgrounds. I possess a profound understanding of diverse cultures and religions, which enables me to offer culturally sensitive and inclusive therapy. This multicultural competence allows me to connect with individuals on a deeper level, respecting their unique perspectives and values.

My therapeutic approach is characterised by a deep appreciation for the richness of human diversity. I acknowledge that cultural and religious factors can significantly influence one's beliefs, values, and experiences. This understanding forms the foundation of my practice, ensuring that individuals from various cultural and religious backgrounds feel heard, respected, and understood during their therapeutic journey.

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy is a depth model of thinking and understanding the mind and it’s the most complex form of talking therapy, with a significant focus on increasing a person's self-awareness of any deep emotional issues and internal conflicts that might have a bearing on present difficulties.

I am a member of the Association for Group and Individual Psychotherapy (AGIP) in North London, where I see clients twice a week on a long-term basis.

My skills and knowledge are not only a reflection of my academic and clinical experience but also a reflection of my work experience as a Counsellor for an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) organisation and within the NHS (for a GP surgery), and years of working in various female and male prisons across the UK.
