Every day is a new beginning. Treat it that way.
Stay away from what might have been, and look at what can be.

Welcome

There are times in life when we feel stuck: we no longer cope as well as before, we are not fulfilling our full potential, and we are not satisfied. I believe we all have the resources within ourselves to overcome these times but often we need some support to help bring it all together.

I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist in the city of London. I am BPS and HPC registered and have many years of experience and training in various therapeutic approaches, some shorter, others longer-term. My aim is to help you to get from where you are to where you want to be. While this sometimes involves exploring the past to understand the sources of present difficulties, my focus is on the present and on empowering people to move forward.

Depending on personal circumstances and needs I draw on aspects of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Person Centred, Psychodynamic Therapy and Psychological Life Coaching. I most typically work with:
depression, anxiety, stress, anger, relationship difficulties,
sexual concerns,low self-esteem, eating disorders,
work related issues and, emotional problems.

I provide a safe and confidential place for you to bring and talk through any issues or concerns. Before entering into therapy I would meet you for an extended meeting to discuss your needs and to provide an outline treatment plan for your consideration. This also offers the opportunity for both of us to perceive if we work well together on a personal basis. I am bilingual and offer my services in English and Portuguese.
I am based opposite Liverpool Street station/Bishopsgate within easy reach of Moorgate, Bank and London Bridge.
