My clinical practice is influenced by the work and ideas of Freud and Lacan: I am in ongoing training at the Centre for Freudian Analysis and Research (CFAR) and a trainee member of the UKCP. I hold an honours degree in social theory and history from the University of Melbourne, and a Masters in Psychoanalytic Studies from the University of London.
Alongside my private practice based in North London, I am a senior practitioner at Mind in the City, Hackney and Waltham Forest. I am also a senior honorary counsellor and assessor at Strides Highbury Counselling Centre in North London. Here, too, I welcome under-4s and their carers at Bubble & Speak, a unique social space with a focus on fostering the individuality of each child through play and chat. For a number of years, I also held a position at the Psychosis Therapy Project, working with individuals and groups across various sites in London.
I abide by both the CFAR and UKCP codes of ethics.
