ABOUT ME
About Me
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
― C.G. Jung

Member of the British Association of Dramatherapists (BADth)
​
I’m an HCPC registered, EMDR trained, Drama and Movement Therapist and Supervisor living and working in London.
​
Placing connection and understanding at the heart of my practice, I offer a culturally sensitive, person centred approach to psychotherapy based on Jungian principles.
​
My specialist interests include therapeutic encounters through the lens of social justice, cultural influence on emotional development and the influence of the creative arts on brain development.
​
Further to my role as the Senior Psychological Therapist within HMP Services, I am a visiting lecturer at Roehampton University and performing artist.
​
As a Sesame trained drama and movement therapist I use a blend of psychology, movement, dramaturgy, stories and neuroscience to support my clients in building a better understanding of their internal worlds.
​
By using the arts as an explorative tool, truths that are hidden within the depths of the psyche may be revealed in a safe and containing way. In accessing unconscious processes and offering them a form; be that through art, movement, or any other creative medium, we enable ourselves to explore and share our story. This may give us the tools to forming a more integrated understanding of who we are and why.
My interest in neuroscience and training in Neuropsychoanalysis and Neuro-dramatic-play equip me with an understanding of these processes from a neurological perspective, in turn enabling me to facilitate therapy from both a holistic and science led perspective.
Creative processes allow us to retune our neural pathways establishing healthier thought patterns , facilitating a more autonomous relationship with the way we relate to ourselves and the world around us.
