Individual Therapy
Do I dare disturb the universe?
T.S. Eliot
What is psychotherapy?
Psychodynamic therapy looks at our templates for moving through the world.
They're often unconscious, yet they form the building blocks for a universe of meaning.
And they can lock in strategies that are no longer serving us.
As we notice these in a contained, supportive space, old structures loosen and new choices become possible.
This is depth work. It takes time. I don't have a magic pill or a guarantee.
But I create a space where you might make something new for yourself.
Who I work with
'Here are my 50 specialisms' isn't a great way to assess therapist fit (imho).
These are some of the categories that shape how I practise.

What is therapy about? Free workshops
For anyone new to therapy or just curious, I offer practical introductory workshops about what it is and how it works. Register your interest here.
Locations
Stevenage
I work at Springfield House Community Centre, on the High Street in Old Town — a calm, comfortable room a short walk from the town centre.
London Bridge
I am part of Number 42, a community of experienced practitioners by London Bridge station and Borough Market.
Outdoors
Walking together to work through problems is as old as humanity. It engages the body, reduces the pressure of direct eye contact, and brings us back into contact with nature. In and around Stevenage.
Online
I work with people across the UK and internationally via video. You choose an environment that feels familiar and comfortable — being in your own space can make it easier to find your own words.
Open Events
Outside psychotherapy, I offer open events to explore relevant topics, and an ongoing group to explore contemporary masculinity. Register your interest below and I'll be in touch.
Introduction to Therapy
Why would I consider therapy? What should I expect? How do I choose a therapist? How much does it cost?
An insider's view and a chance to ask questions.
Next event: Monday 6 July, 7pm. In person and online. Register here.
Grief and endings in organisations
Endings and loss are rarely acknowledged in organisations, but they impact productivity as well as morale.
This is a reflective, practical space to think about endings and loss in organisations.
Next event: Wednesday 8 July, 10-11.30am. Online. Register here.
Exploring Masculinities
The models of masculinity most of us grew up around don't match who we are and want to be today.
What we do with that, what masculinities we will find and choose for ourselves, is a question for each of us.
I am opening a group to explore this question together.

About
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Practice from the University of Oxford.
I am a Registered Member of the BACP, the UK's largest professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists.
You can also find me on Psychology Today and Pear.
Alongside my clinical work, I have experience working in the public sector, social enterprise, charities, and in consultancy.
I hold an MA in Organisational Development, where I focused on masculinity as a lens to understand leadership and change.
I have lived and worked in Eastern Europe, and speak some Russian.
I believe this breadth of experience gives me a broad perspective, helping me to relate to a wide range of people, contexts, and difficulties.
