About me and my therapy practice
I am a very experienced psychodynamic psychotherapist with an MA (distinction) in Couple and Individual Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. I worked for several years at Tavistock Relationships, London, as a clinician, an assessor and a personal tutor to trainee therapists. I have also specialised in Mentalisation-Based Treatment for Couples Therapy, a form of therapy for those who find that their arguments can get very stormy and heated. This specific therapy, known as MBT-CT, can help couples to understand their emotional responses better by focusing on the partner’s feelings as well as their own.I currently see patients at The Practice in East Molesey, Surrey, where I offer in-person and online counselling sessions in English and Italian.
I work with both couples and individuals, offering a warm and supportive space where you can feel heard and understood. I specialise in relationship difficulties such as affairs, breaches of trust, jealousy, communication problems, parental issues, loss of sexual desire, and the lasting impact of past hurts.
My approach is grounded in the belief that our past experiences shape how we think, feel and relate to others today. Whether you are facing relationship challenges, navigating a crisis, feeling stuck in repeated patterns or simply wanting to improve your connection with others, we can work together to understand what is going on and find new ways forward.
Practice description
Deciding to seek help is often a significant step, and finding the therapist that best suits your needs is part of this delicate process. From the moment you make your first enquiry I usually offer a 15 minutes phone conversation, free of charge, to discuss your needs and answer any questions you might have. At the end of the phone call we can decide together whether you would like to book an initial consultation. The initial consultation will be an opportunity to understand your needs and concerns in more depth and what you expect to gain from the therapy. At the end of the consultation, there is no obligation to commit to therapy if one or both of us feel that my support does not feel appropriate at this stage in your life.
My first session
Once we agree to proceed with therapy, we would meet once a week at a time convenient for us both. Counselling sessions for both individuals and couples last 50 minutes. You will be encouraged to start the session by talking or sharing anything that is on your mind. There is no right or wrong way of doing it. Your thoughts and feelings are what matters, and we will be able to explore together whatever is troubling you in a way that gradually enables you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself.What I can help with
