I am a BPC registered Psychodynamic Psychotherapist with over fifteen year’s experience working with people from diverse backgrounds and in various settings, privately and within the NHS.
I work extensively with people going through crisis and significant life changes, and have a special interest and expertise in working with issues of identity and culture, immigration and relocation, masculinity and starting a family.
People often come to see me when they are struggling with their mood, low self-esteem, anger, loneliness, anxiety and stress. You might be having difficulties in relationships, in your career, with sexuality or addiction. You might be troubled by earlier experiences or feel stuck and have a need to think about your life more broadly and try to make sense of things.
In a psychodynamic approach I aim to help you think about unconscious thoughts and feelings, early experiences and relationships. I will offer you a safe space to talk about whatever’s troubling you, even if you’re not sure what that is exactly, and am committed to helping you challenge the things in your life that aren’t working for you.
I believe that therapy helps us to become who we genuinely are. Talking things through with a professional can help us become more aware of ourselves and the patterns we fall into, our fears and desires. This can help us to understand ourselves at a deeper level, to find more freedom in our lives, to grow and to flourish.
How I work:
Therapy is typically open-ended, sessions are 50 minutes long unstructured and open, and you are invited to talk about whatever you’d like on the day.
We will usually need one or two initial consultations to discuss what’s troubling you, what would be helpful and whether I am the right therapist for you. These sessions are sometimes slightly longer and charged differently.
I work with adults of all ages, and older adolescents, in English and in Hebrew.
I also offer clinical supervision for clinicians from different backgrounds.
I work from Walthamstow Therapy on Wednesday evenings, and have other availability through the week elsewhere. I am currently working in person but can offer online sessions in some cases.
