About me<\/h1>\n

I am a qualified, accredited and registered integrative psychotherapist & counsellor and executive coach in private practice with over 15 years experience working with individuals, couples, and organisations.<\/p>\n

My expertise lies in addressing \u00a0interpersonal difficulties, cross-cultural issues, and stress-related problems, including anxiety and depression<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The depth of my training also equips me to effectively work with various concerns such as trauma, abuse, dissociation, narcissism, self-harm, sexual problems and complex, enduring mental health issues.<\/p>\n

My personal background is rooted in Freud\u2019s Vienna, and I have family connections in the UK, Austria, Italy and Germany.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As a former business professional, I am dedicated to promoting health and wellbeing, bringing a pragmatic and holistic perspective to my therapeutic work by drawing on my extensive experience as a senior yoga teacher trainer and mindfulness teacher.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to my private practice, I am involved in lecturing and examining at a London university, as well as consulting organisations on HR strategies with a specific focus on burnout prevention.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

My approach<\/span><\/h4>\n

My approach to therapy is based on recognising the significance of both context and content in our narrative and life experience. I adopt an intersectional perspective while acknowledging the embodied nature of our mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

The integrative approach I employ allows me to combine traditional therapeutic theories with evidence-based models and<\/span> contemporary relational ideas grounded in findings from neurobiology. This enables me to tailor <\/span>treatment to my clients’ needs, rather than fitting them into a specific method. <\/span><\/p>\n

I draw on various theoretical frameworks in my approach, including psychoanalytic and psychodynamic thought, attachment- and regulation theories, sensorimotor and b<\/span>ody-awareness approaches to trauma treatment, interpersonal neurobiology,<\/span> cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), integrating them with my life experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While most of my therapeutic work with individuals and couples is longer term, I also offer time-limited solution focussed Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) based on my experience in the NHS.<\/span><\/p>\n

Clinics in London, Wimbledon (SW19), and Online.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Qualifications & Training<\/h2>\n

An accredited member of BACP and UKCP, and BPC accredited DIT practitioner, I abide by the code of ethics of my governing bodies. I am\u00a0committed to continued professional development and have\u00a0undertaken qualitative research on the experience of Uncertainty in therapy.<\/p>\n
