About Me

I live in London with my family and adore the rich diversity of the city I call home. Our Cockapoo ensures I make plenty of time to walk in nature which is also my favourite way to reflect and ground.

As a teenager my mother died suddenly, and it changed everything. That experience brought home to me how deeply our mental and physical wellbeing can be shaken by what life throws at us, especially when we’ve no idea how to meet what has happened. I don’t believe anyone should have to navigate those challenges alone. Psychotherapy and counselling can be a lifeline especially once we let go of the story that says we must cope with everything on our own. I believe deeply in providing an honest space to understand ourselves, meet what hurts and keeps us stuck in order to move towards the life we want.

There are too many of us carrying hard things in silence. We do not need to do this alone.

Being truly witnessed changes what’s possible, especially when it’s hard to put words to feelings, to settle a busy mind, to hold your boundaries, or to find your footing again after difficult change. Being a British Indian counsellor, I care deeply about the stories we inherit, family, culture, community and how they shape belonging.

Your whole self is always welcome in my practice.

My Values and Approach

We will always go at your pace. Psychological safety, trust and an honest relationship will always take priority in our work together. Because we are all so different I tailor our sessions to you, no one-size-fits-all. I am trained in various counselling, therapeutic and coaching approaches and so can deliver an agile integrative approach dependent on your needs. Context also really matters, identity, language, faith, family, work and relationships all have a place in the room. My aim is to meet you where you are, without judgement, and work with you as things unfold.

Qualifications

I’m a BACP-registered counsellor (MBACP) with a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Counselling & Coaching (PGDip) and Sociology BA (Hons), with further training as a Grief Coach, Life Coach and Grief Educator. I work with regular clinical supervision and ongoing CPD, so my practice stays safe, ethical and current. Enhanced DBS.

My integrative training means I tailor sessions and draw from

Existential (meaning & choice)
Gestalt (present-moment awareness)
Humanistic (strengths & growth)
Psychodynamic (past patterns)
Transactional Analysis (TA) (communication & relational patterns)
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (values & acceptance)
Solution-Focused Brief (solution steps)
Person-Centred
Various Coaching approaches

Beyond Therapy

Alongside my private practice work I also design and deliver grief education and mental health and wellbeing training helping organisations, teams and communities speak about loss, understand what’s happening in the mind and body, and build kinder, more compassionate and supportive cultures.

I also work with young people in colleges delivering counselling and group work.
