About Me
I have undergone training in Art Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Mentalisation Based Therapy (MBT). I have maintained an ongoing commitment to personal and professional development, which serves to enrich the foundation upon which I practise.
I have worked with many people challenged with depression, anxiety, sexuality and relationship difficulties, bereavement, trauma and abuse, substance misuse and adjustment to disability. In London, I have provided CBT for clients with post-traumatic stress disorder referred by medico-legal organisations, and art therapy at Recognition Health, a specialised clinic for cognitive disorders. I have provided art therapy at Greenwich Hospice in London and at the UK National Eating Disorder Service for adolescents at Springfield Hospital.

Psychotherapy
People generally turn to psychotherapy to work through the difficulties and dilemmas in which they find themselves. Psychodynamic psychotherapy aims to address conscious and unconscious issues. It can be helpful if the problem has been long term and has a recurring pattern. The therapeutic relationship is central to making therapy work.
In your initial assessment, we will work together to identify the aims and approach you understand to be most beneficial for your therapy. Appointment times will be organised in your first session. In line with my professional organisation, there is some paperwork to sign and read over such as a consent and confidentiality agreement.

Art Therapy
Art Therapy explores the relationships between the image, client and art therapist. Clients may draw from a range of materials (e.g. pencils, paint or pastels) to give form to their feelings, memories and desires.
Engaging with art materials could offer a means to work through a problem. The creative process – searching for form, working with content and meaning in images, overcoming areas of difficulty and bringing elements together – may provide space for introspection and learning. All art work is confidential and property of the client.

Mentalisation based therapy
Mentalisation occurs when we try to imagine and understand what’s going on in others and ourselves. We usually do this automatically but sometimes it requires effort. History of insecure attachment and stress in relationships can trigger non-mentalising, which could lead to not feeling understood, valued or safe.
Mentalisation based therapy (MBT) has been used for trauma, depression, addiction and relationships. Its aim is to build communication, trust and understanding. To book an assessment for MBT, please contact me.
