By listening emphatically to your problems, I help you to reach a clearer understanding of yourself
By listening attentively, I begin to perceive your difficulties from your point of view and can help you to see things more clearly, maybe from a different angle. I encourage you to explore various aspects of your life and feelings concerning those aspects, talking about them freely and openly in a way that is rarely possible with family and friends. Bottled up feelings such as anger, anxiety, grief, jealousy, sadness and pain can become very intense and stressful.

About me and my practice
I started my private practice in North London in 2002, when I was at the end of my first counselling training.
My current counselling and coaching practice is in North London, Tottenham, Hale Village, N17 7GD , 8 minutes from Tottenham Hale tube and train station, only two tube stations away from Finsbury Park and a couple of bus stops away from Edmonton and Wood Green.
In 2012, after I completed my Diploma in Transpersonal Couple Counselling and a Certificate in Psychosexual Couples Therapy, I have been working very intensely with couples and helped them to:
Disrupt unhealthy repetitive pattern and give you the opportunity to develop new behaviour that leads to positive, different outcomes and conflict resolution
Outline and mobilise the strength in the relationship and how each partner contributes to that.
To teach you how to communicate in a non violent way with each other.
To see each other in new ways and with empathy and understanding
To teach you how to communicate in a non judgemental and non blaming way and still express your feelings and needs
Raise awareness about different attachment styles and how this affects the kind of partner you unconsciously choose.
In 2013 I gained more practice in working with people with OCD and developed an expertise in helping people with OCD.
After I completed my training in Eating Disorder, Nutritional Intervention for Eating Disorder and Bulimia I gained more skills and experience in working with those issues including introducing mindful eating to people with obesity and making better lifestyle choices that leads to better health.
Experience
I have worked as an independent practitioner in private practice since 2002 in Central and North London providing short and long-term counselling and psychotherapy services to adults, young people, children and couples with depression and anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, PTSD, trauma and abuse, insomnia, low self-esteem and self harm, codependency and relationship problems, loss and bereavement issues, anger problems, work and stress related problems, assertiveness problems and personal or professional development crisis.
Expertise
Over the last 12 years I have developed an expertise in working with people with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) and have helped many OCD sufferers to fully recover. I mainly use Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy as main treatment model. All OCD sufferer have some very rigid, irrational beliefs about absolute certainty and safety and think: I absolutely must be safe under all conditions at all times and this drives some people into self-defeating rituals, countings and obsessions.
My treatment plan for OCD includes some of the following:
I will help you to become aware of some specific anxieties, obsessions, thoughts, and images and how you engage in repetitive rituals in order to get a temporary relief from anxiety.
Show you that the anxiety that underlies your OCD behaviour is irrational, unrealistic and self defeating.
Show you that trying to reduce your anxiety by engaging in OCD rituals will only reduce your anxiety temporarily, but increase it in the long term.
Help you how to change your irrational, beliefs that fuels your OCD rituals
I can help you to reduce your compulsions to a minimum, or life a happy live completely without compulsions.
Over the last 20 years I have completed some trauma training and I have become a trauma informed therapist. I have an in depth experience in working various childhood trauma's, as well as sexual traumas and violent abuse and also traumas caused by accidents.
