Thanks for taking an interest in my work.

I am an integrative psychotherapist in private practice, working face-to-face with adults in Wimbledon, London. My clinical approach combines contemporary psychodynamic therapy with an embodied, trauma-informed lens, integrating whole-body awareness, relational depth, and psychoeducation.

My orientation draws from multiple strands of theory and practice, including interpersonal neurobiology (with an emphasis on the polyvagal system and the neurobiology of attachment), survivor-led frameworks rooted in lived experience, and evidence-based principles drawn from yoga psychology—particularly ahimsa (non-violence) and satya (authenticity).

My work is informed by clinical models developed through ongoing research into somatic-based adjunctive treatments for complex trauma. My approach is grounded in attachment theory and the long-term somatic and emotional effects of relational trauma.

My client work is further informed by a background in trauma-informed yoga facilitation, the study of yoga psychology, group work, and substance misuse recovery. I have developed and delivered addiction and bereavement services within HM Prisons and have facilitated reflective and experiential groups for people in recovery.

I work with those navigating a wide range of experiences, including:

• Developmental and relational trauma

• Dysregulated eating, shame, and body image distress

• High-functioning anxiety and emotional exhaustion

• Chronic self-blame and disrupted self-worth

• Persistent physical tension and nervous system dysregulation

• The psychological and somatic impact of pregnancy, maternal identity, and the transitions of motherhood

I have a particular interest in how institutional misrecognition, early attachment rupture, and gendered expectations shape our sense of safety in the world and in our own bodies. My work often explores themes of introjection, nervous system regulation, and relational repair.

Commitment to Ongoing Professional Development and Supervision

I remain deeply committed to my own therapeutic development and professional integrity. I engage in regular embodied integrative psychotherapy supervision, alongside continuing somatic and movement-based personal therapy, to support ethical, embodied practice. My learning is ongoing: I participate in CPD, attend lectures and workshops, and remain actively involved in both psychological and movement-based professional communities.

I am currently completing the Complex Trauma Certification with Janina Fisher, based on Fisher’s Therapy for Structural Dissociation and Parts Work model, and undertaking training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy: Body-Oriented Therapy Techniques for Trauma and Attachment, developed by Pat Ogden. This continual learning reflects my commitment to remaining at the intersection of current theory and clinical application—especially in the integration of neuroscience, somatic regulation, and relational psychodynamic practice.

I lecture on embodied countertransference and facilitate reflective spaces for practitioners working at the intersection of trauma, care, and recovery. My master's research focused on the phenomenon of practitioner embodied countertransference, and I continue to write and teach in this area.
