We provide individual psychological therapy for adults experiencing emotional, relational, and trauma-related difficulties. Our work is formulation-led and tailored to the individual, rather than driven by diagnosis alone or a one-size-fits-all model.

Healing is not just psychological - its relational, cultural and embodied.

You might find yourself thinking:

“On the outside, I have it all together, but inside I’m constantly carrying guilt, shame, and anxiety I can’t explain.”

“I’ve spent my life trying to be the ‘good daughter’ or ‘good girl,’ but I don’t even know who I really am.”

“Setting boundaries feels like betrayal, especially with family”

“I carry wounds from childhood - from emotional neglect, criticism, or control - but I’ve never had a safe space to unpack it.”

“I don’t want to pass on these patterns to the next generation.”

Trauma Therapy in London | Online Trauma Therapy | London | UK

These conflicting thoughts are familiar to many high-functioning individuals, especially those who’ve carried the weight of family expectations, responsibilities, and unspoken pressures for years. Your "logical self" might understand things on an intellectual level, but emotionally, you still feel torn.

That’s where our therapy approach comes in.

We help bridge the gap between the logical understanding you have and your emotional experience.

Together, we’ll work on allowing your "knowing" to deepen, so that you no longer feel divided between your responsibilities and your own needs. Over time, you’ll feel more aligned, genuinely believing those things you’ve always known but couldn’t quite internalise.

Specialisations

Depression and Self Esteem

You appear to have it all together - managing work, family, and daily responsibilities. But inside, you feel drained, disconnected, or stuck in autopilot. If you're struggling to find joy or ease, you're not alone. Support is available, and change is possible

High-functioning Anxiety

You’re high-functioning, yet anxiety follows you everywhere - racing thoughts, constant tension, and a sense of being on edge. On the outside, you’re managing well; inside, it’s a different story. Anxiety is treatable. With the right support, you can regain calm, clarity, and control.

OCD and Perfectionism

You may find yourself stuck in repetitive thoughts or rituals, trying to feel “just right” or avoid imagined threats. On the outside, you’re functioning - but inside, OCD is exhausting. You don’t have to stay trapped in these cycles. Effective treatment can help you find freedom.

Attachment Trauma

If early relationships left you feeling unsafe, unseen, or unworthy, that pain can show up as trust issues, emotional disconnection, or fear of intimacy. You may long for closeness but feel overwhelmed. With the right support, you can build safer, healthier connections - starting with yourself.

Addiction and Codependency

Addiction is not simply about substance use or compulsive behaviour. It is a multi-layered coping response, often rooted in pain, trauma, shame, and unmet emotional needs. I help clients understand the real function of addiction and create sustainable pathways toward recovery and relational repair.

Intergenerational Trauma

You may carry pain that didn’t start with you - patterns of fear, disconnection, or emotional struggle passed down through generations. Even if your life looks stable, that inherited weight can feel overwhelming. With the right support, you can break the cycle and create a new path forward

Therapy Approaches

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based psychological treatment that helps individuals identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour. CBT is commonly used to treat anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, anger management, PTSD, OCD, phobias, eating disorders, and more.

  • Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured, evidence-based psychotherapy developed to help individuals process and recover from traumatic experiences and distressing memories. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation such as guided eye movements to help the brain reprocess unresolved memories, reducing their emotional impact.

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples is the gold standard in evidence-based couples counselling. Grounded in attachment theory, EFT helps partners identify and break negative cycles, deepen emotional connection, and create more secure, resilient relationships. It is particularly effective for couples facing communication issues, emotional disconnection, or relationship distress.

  • ACT is an evidence-based therapy that blends mindfulness with practical tools to help you navigate emotional pain without being overwhelmed by it. Rooted in both Western science and Eastern wisdom, ACT supports you in unhooking from unhelpful thoughts and reconnecting with what truly matters.
