Feeling Stuck or Overwhelmed?
You may feel caught in cycles of worry, self-doubt, or behaviours that no longer serve you. Whether these challenges stem from the past, present, or future, you're not alone.
A Tailored, Integrative Approach
No one approach suits everyone. I draw from hypno-psychotherapy, person-centred therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychodynamic therapy, working collaboratively to understand your experiences and find the right path forward.
Together, we can:
Process past experiences
Navigate current challenges
Prepare for future goals
Why Psychotherapy?
By accessing deeper levels of the mind, psychotherapy helps reshape limiting beliefs, strengthen self-awareness, and support lasting change.
This is a safe, reflective space to explore, understand, and take control of your life.
About Us
With over 25 years of experience supporting individuals in personal and professional growth, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges faced by people from all walks of life. I have trained with the National College of Hypnosis and Psychotherapy and on the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) training path for hypno-psychotherapists and hold a foundation in psychoanalytic psychotherapy with the Association of Group and Individual Psychotherapists
My approach is integrative and person-centred, drawing on psychodynamic and solutions-focused techniques to support clients dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, phobias, and workplace challenges. I am committed to creating a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where clients can explore complex emotions, develop self-awareness, and build resilience.
My extensive experience in leadership roles within higher education and financial services gives me a unique insight into the pressures professionals face. This background informs my therapeutic approach, helping clients find clarity, balance, and confidence in life and work.
I hold a Master’s in Organisational Psychology and Coaching from Birkbeck, University of London, and have been featured in The Guardian, The Independent, and The Daily Telegraph. I have also contributed to panels and interviews with CEOs and industry leaders on career development and well-being.
At CityCalm Therapy, I offer psychotherapy and hypnotherapy tailored to your individual needs—whether you're looking to overcome personal challenges, reduce anxiety, or find balance in a fast-paced world
