I have worked as a Stress Management Consultant with a recruitment agency for 13 years in the corporate environment.

My work for many years was as a complementary therapist specialising in Fertility. I have helped many women to achieve their dream of becoming a mother over the past 20 years. I retired from this aspect of my work in 2014, leaving more time and energy for my counselling clients.
I qualified as a Couples Counsellor in 2010 since when I have worked with numerous couples presenting with varying complexity of relationship difficulties. I have a particular interest in undiagnosed high-functioning Autism and how the condition brings with it a particular set of challenges in relationships.
As well as Couples and Individuals, my practice includes same sex couples, siblings and friends experiencing problems in their relationships.
I offer online and in person sessions in central London.
