Psychoanalytic & Jungian — UKCP Registered

Something feels off. You might not be able to name it exactly — just a persistent sense that old patterns keep repeating, or that the weight of something unresolved is quietly getting heavier.

You don't need a diagnosis
to start therapy

Most people who come to me aren't in crisis. They're functioning — working, maintaining relationships, getting through their days — but carrying something that therapy with a GP or a short-term counsellor hasn't touched.

  • Trauma Difficult experiences from the past that still shape how you feel today
  • Anxiety Persistent worry that doesn't seem to have a clear cause — or one that does, but won't shift
  • Stress Pressure that has become a baseline rather than a passing phase
  • Self-Esteem A persistent doubt about your worth that does not shift with achievement or reassurance
  • Grief & Loss Bereavement or other loss that continues to affect how you live
  • Depression Low mood that has settled in and is not lifting with time alone
  • Loss of Meaning A flatness or emptiness when life looks fine from the outside but no longer feels worth living
  • Relationships Repeating patterns in how you connect, trust or pull away from others
  • A persistent sense of disconnection, or of not fully understanding yourself

Depth work,
not quick fixes

Psychoanalytic psychotherapy works differently from CBT or short-term counselling. It's interested in the unconscious patterns, early experiences and inner conflicts that drive thoughts and behaviours in the first place.

Rooted in psychoanalytic and Jungian traditions, this is work that changes how you relate to yourself — and to others.

Learn more about my approach →
Psychoanalytic
Exploring unconscious patterns, early experiences and inner conflicts that shape present-day difficulties.
Jungian
Drawing on archetypes, dreams and the deeper symbolic life of the psyche to find meaning.
Relational
The therapeutic relationship itself is a tool — what emerges between us reflects patterns from the rest of your life.

you might think

First session
A 50-minute appointment at £75. We talk through what's brought you to therapy and what you're hoping for. No prior preparation needed.

We begin
If we both feel it's a good fit, we agree a regular weekly time. The work is ongoing — there's no fixed endpoint imposed from the start.

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, MA · UKCP Registered · Online across the UK · In person in South London

I've been working as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist for 12 years, trained at the Guild of Psychotherapists, with a particular interest in trauma, anxiety and the kind of chronic stress that accumulates quietly over time. My approach is informed by both classical psychoanalytic thinking and Jungian psychology — a combination that allows for genuinely exploratory, depth-oriented work. I work online with adults across the UK, and offer in-person sessions in South London.
