I am an accredited counsellor, CBT and Schema Therapist, founder and clinical director of Healing Conversations. I mostly work with people who have high levels of anxiety, struggling with the impact of trauma or OCD.

At Healing Conversations in central London, we specialize in helping individuals to manage their anxiety, OCD and break free from the impact of past difficulties.

With years of experience working with clients across different cultures and time zones, I offer online sessions globally, providing tailored support to professionals navigating the pressures of success while carrying the weight of their past—no matter where they are in the world.

MY PSYCHOTHERAPY TRAINING

I have a bachelor’s degree in Psychology (2012) and master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy (2015) which I completed extensive psychotherapy training as part of the programme.

I worked as a psychotherapist for several charities between 2015-2020. I worked as a psychotherapist and a psychotherapy team manager for the Doctors of the World which I worked with young people and adults who have been to traumatic experiences in their lives.  Then, I worked for the Maya Foundation as a psychotherapy project manager and a psychotherapist which I supported young people with emotional and personal issues. I worked as a psychotherapist for Imece Women’s Centre with women who have been to domestic abuse relationships.

I received training in CBT and ERP as a part of my masters training and further training from the Centre for Behavioural Sciences which I started practice in 2015.

I am a certified Schema Therapist and I have been practicing schema therapy since 2017.  Currently, I mostly utilize the practice of schema therapy because it is a powerful and transformative approach which can help you to break long standing harmful patterns which leads to psychological problems, discover your true wishes and reach your goals with a warm and compassionate approach.

I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a member of International Society of Schema Therapy and the British Psychological Society.

I have completed a number of training courses in Play Therapy, Art Psychotherapy, and Mindfulness. I incorporate art therapy and mindfulness strategies to my practice to help my clients become more self-compassionate.

I am a co-author of the book Introduction to Clinical Interviewing (2018) which is published by Ideal Publishing House.

Currently, I accept clients at the Healing Conversations Mental Health Group Practice in central London which I am the founder and the clinical director.
