Bachelors: I hold a degree in Psychology and have completed additional training in relational and developmental approaches.

I have a deep respect and curiosity for human diversity in all its forms. My practice warmly welcomes people of all backgrounds, identities, and orientations. Whether you feel we may have a lot in common or very little, I aim to offer a space where you can feel accepted, heard, and valued exactly as you are. I genuinely look forward to meeting you.

School-based therapeutic work supporting parents, children and young people with emotional, psychological and behavioural difficulties within educational settings.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy with children, adolescents and adults, working with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and the lasting impact of past experiences.

Therapeutic mentoring programmes for children aged 6 to 13, helping to build emotional regulation, resilience, confidence and relational capacity.

Specialist experience supporting neurodivergent children and young people, including those with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASD), in both therapeutic and educational contexts.

Collaborative work with families and professional networks, including parents, teachers, SENCOs, safeguarding leads and multidisciplinary teams.

Multi-agency and cross-cultural experience, including work across the UK and Peru, bringing a broad and thoughtful perspective to development, identity and emotional wellbeing.

I am a child and adolescent therapist with several years of experience supporting young people in both clinical and school settings. I trained at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust, with a focus on understanding emotional development and the ways children communicate through play, behaviour, and relationships. I hold two Master’s degrees from the Tavistock and Portman: the first in Perinatal, Child, Adolescent and Family Work, and the second in Psychological Therapies with Children, Young People and Families.

Before beginning my clinical training, I spent eight years working in early-years settings. While this is no longer the main focus of my professional identity, it gave me a deep appreciation for how a child’s mind develops, how emotional patterns are formed, how relationships are understood, and how the foundations for the handling of feelings begin to take shape. Over the last few years, I have worked extensively in schools, supporting students aged 5–18 with a wide range of emotional and behavioural difficulties. My work has included individual therapy, parent work, and collaboration with teachers and pastoral teams to ensure each child is held within a supportive network.

My approach is compassionate, thoughtful, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I aim to help young people feel heard, understood, and more able to navigate the challenges they are facing.

After completing my undergraduate degree in Psychology, I pursued a master’s in Clinical and Health Psychology. To further enhance my ability to support my clients, I was awarded a scholarship to complete an MA in Child, Adolescent, and Family Psychodynamic Psychotherapy at the Tavistock & Portman NHS Foundation Trust.

 

With almost 10 years of experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other special needs, I bring a deep understanding of the unique challenges that can arise in these situations. I also have extensive experience working with a diverse range of clients—adults, adolescents, and families—from various backgrounds and cultures. I have worked with individuals dealing with an array of emotional, behavioural, and psychological issues, including trauma, identity struggles, and complex life transitions.
