I am an accredited psychotherapist with a UKCP-certified master's degree in existential psychotherapy from the New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling (NSPC, Middlesex University). I am experienced in working with people of all ages and backgrounds, exploring:
Relationship and workplace difficulties
Questions of identity and sexuality
Problems from the past
Feeling lost or disconnected
Life transitions, finding meaning and purpose

My postgraduate research focuses on an existential understanding of the problematic use of pornography and male identity. I present on the neuroscience of psychotherapy to trainee counsellors and provide research supervision and tutoring to doctoral psychotherapy students.

I adhere to the ethical framework of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the Universities Psychotherapy & Counselling Association (UPCA) and hold an enhanced DBS certificate. I also attend regular supervision sessions with a qualified supervisor to ensure my work remains reflective, ethical and effective.

I began with a doctorate in neuroscience at the Institute of Psychiatry, driven by a fascination with the human experience and what drives our thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Working in pharmaceutical research taught me how medication can ease symptoms of distress – but also revealed the limits of a one-size-fits-all approach.

In medical education, I developed behaviour-change programmes for healthcare professionals and patients, reinforcing my belief that lasting change must be personal, not prescriptive.

Later, when leading and coaching diverse teams in global creative healthcare agencies, I saw how background, motivation, and emotional context shape how people work, relate, and grow. I also saw the power of being truly heard – and the transformation that happens when someone feels understood.

That led me to train as an existential psychotherapist and coach, where I could make this kind of deep, personalised work central to my practice.
