I am a training psychoanalytic psychotherapist and training group analyst and supervisor with Institute of Group Analysis and Association for Group and Individual Psychotherapy with many years experience of working in private practice, the third sector and the NHS.

I work with individuals, couples and groups in person with spaces in a twice weekly group Tuesdays/Wednesdays 6.45-8.15pm (Archway), once weekly group Monday 6.15-7.45pm (Warren Street).

I can also work online where required. I am involved in many of the IGA trainings including the Diploma in Supervision course, which I have adapted and co-convened in St Petersburg and Moscow. I also have experience of working on block trainings. In the NHS I am Consultant Group Analyst at North London Foundation Trust where I head up a thriving group therapy training placement, and a Perinatal Psychotherapist for North East London Foundation Trust where I offer parent-infant therapy, and have adapted group analytic thinking to develop groups with mothers and babies as equal group members. I have long term experience of training, and supervising students from different counselling and psychotherapy organisations and have held senior roles in AGIP and IGA.

I offer training, supervision (BAPPS registered), reflective practice and consultancy for a range of NHS trusts. Specialist experience includes early attachment issues, eating disorders, sexual trauma, reproductive and fertility issues, loss and bereavement and work with refugees.
