Qualification I completed my BSc in Psychology in 2022 followed by my Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy, with a specialisation in psychodynamic psychotherapy.
I also work extensively in the field of research, with a focus on psychodynamic perspectives on issues and bring to light psychodynamic understandings of the world we currently live in.
I am currently a doctoral researcher with GCAS, working towards my PhD in modern applied psychoanalytical/psychodynamic therapies.
Experience4+ years in Psychodynamic psychotherapy
Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals in both online and in-person settings, supporting them through a range of emotional and relational challenges. Whether we’re meeting face-to-face or virtually, I strive to create a space that feels safe, thoughtful, and attuned — a place where you can slow down, reflect, and connect more deeply with yourself. My work is grounded in a psychodynamic approach, guided by curiosity, compassion, and a genuine interest in each person’s unique story.
Approach Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach grounded in psychoanalytic theory, which originated with the work of Sigmund Freud and evolved through contemporary thinkers such as Melanie Klein, Donald Winnicott, and Wilfred Bion. Over time, it has developed into a nuanced, evidence-informed practice that emphasizes the importance of unconscious processes, emotional development, and the impact of early relationships on present-day experience.
In therapy, we work together to explore how past experiences and internalized relationship patterns influence your current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Attention is given not only to what you consciously know, but also to what may be difficult to articulate — including subtle emotional responses, recurring relational patterns, and the therapeutic relationship itself. By exploring these underlying patterns together, therapy can help you make sense of long-standing struggles, deepen self-understanding, and create new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Research supports psychodynamic psychotherapy as an effective treatment for a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and personality concerns. Its focus on insight and emotional understanding fosters enduring psychological growth, helping individuals not only alleviate symptoms but also deepen their capacity for self-reflection, intimacy, and resilience.
This approach is not about quick fixes, but about meaningful and lasting change that grows through insight, reflection, and emotional connection.
