About me

I am a friendly, safe and professional therapist and a young person's counsellor and really enjoy working with teenagers in schools and privately. I worked for many years as an Anxiety UK-approved therapist, at Mind and Cambridge University. I also set up and run a counselling service in a girls secondary school for 7 years. ​

​

I have particular experience with:

·      Anxiety 

·      Depression

·      Teenagers

·      Bereavement

·      Parenting 

·      Self-esteem

·      Work issues, such as bullying and workloads 

·      Mother-daughter issues.

I am fully insured, with an enhanced DBS certificate and recent safeguarding training, levels 1 and 2.

​

I see adults and teenagers in Highgate, north London near Archway, Muswell Hill, Hampstead, Finchley, Crouch End and Finsbury Park, and across the UK online via Zoom or by phone. 

I am accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and abide by the BACP's ethical guidelines. I am also trained in NHS-approved trauma therapy, EMDR (parts 1 and 2).

I have been featured in the Guardian and written for Therapy Today magazine.

I offer short and open-ended counselling in Highgate, London, online over Zoom or by phone. Sessions are 50 minutes long, with daytime and some early morning slots available to suit your needs.
