ABOUT ME

I have spent more than twenty years sitting with people who are, by most measures, doing well. Capable, often brilliant, holding much together, or appearing to. On the inside though, the experience is often something quite different: a fatigue beneath the effort, a distance from themselves they cannot quite name, a feeling that something essential is waiting to be met. What I have come to know, in that time, is that the most significant work rarely begins with symptoms. It begins with the moment you sense that the life you have built, however successful or well-managed it appears, is no longer quite yours.

​

Perhaps that is where you are now. Somewhere quiet and persistent: a fatigue beneath the effort, a distance from yourself you cannot quite name, a feeling that something essential is waiting to be met.

​

I have trained deeply and across a range of traditions, including a four-year clinical Masters in Psychodynamic Practice at the University of Oxford, a PhD in Medicine at the University of Bristol, and formal grounding in Jungian depth psychology, CBT, and attachment-based approaches. I have also undertaken specialist clinical training in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy through MAPS. I bring all of this into the room. But what I bring first is attention. A willingness to sit with you in whatever is true, without rushing it toward resolution.

​

My clinical work spans the full breadth of adult mental health, with a particular interest in the experiences that mark and reshape a woman's life: fertility, pregnancy, birth, loss, the menstrual cycle, and the profound psychological threshold of perimenopause. I am also an active researcher in the field of psychedelic-assisted therapy. If you would like to know more about that work, you can read about it here.

​

I work with a small number of people at any one time. This is deliberate. It means I can bring my full attention to each person, and it means the work has the depth and seriousness it deserves.

This work has not only been a professional path for me. It has been a personal one. I do not offer quick solutions or tidy frameworks. I offer sustained, careful, deeply attentive work, the kind that takes the whole of you seriously.
