Anxiety and self criticism
Your mind may feel difficult to quiet, with overthinking, pressure or a harsh inner voice taking up more space than you would like.

How can I help?
What may bring you to therapy
You do not need a diagnosis or a perfectly clear explanation of what is wrong. Sometimes therapy begins with little more than a sense that something feels heavy, familiar or hard to understand on your own.
Relationships and repeating patterns
A partnership, breakup, dating experience or family relationship may leave you feeling unseen, anxious or caught in familiar patterns around closeness, conflict or trust.
Loss, change and difficult experiences
Grief, difficult past experiences, becoming a parent, separation or another transition may continue to affect how you feel and relate.
Identity and belonging
You may be thinking about race, culture, masculinity, family expectations, self worth or where you feel able to be fully yourself.
Relationships matter here too
Understanding yourself and the relationships around you
People often come to individual therapy because they want to understand what happens in relationships with partners, family, friends or colleagues, as well as the relationship they have with themselves.
You do not need the other person to be present. Therapy can give you room to think about what certain relationships stir up in you, what seems to repeat and what you may want to understand or change.
Meeting face to face
Individual and talking therapy in Enfield
I meet people from private rooms near Enfield Town, Enfield Chase and Winchmore Hill. The locations are also accessible from Palmers Green, Southgate, Cockfosters, Oakwood and other parts of Enfield.
If you have been searching for counselling, talking therapy or individual therapy in Enfield, these terms often describe overlapping forms of support. You do not need to know which label fits before getting in touch. Online individual therapy is also available across the UK.
How I work
Making sense of what keeps returning
We can look at what is happening now and at experiences or relationships that may still shape how you feel, protect yourself or expect other people to respond.
Therapy with me
A thoughtful space that is not completely silent
I listen carefully and give things room, but I am not completely silent. I may ask a question, return to something important or notice a pattern that keeps appearing.
You do not need the right words. We can begin with what you know and think about the rest together.
Relational Resonance
How relationships can stay with us
Relationships leave an impression on us. The ways we have been seen, responded to, relied upon or disappointed can shape what we expect from other people and from ourselves.
In therapy, we can notice how these experiences may still be present in the way you relate, protect yourself or make sense of what is happening now. This is part of what I mean by Relational Resonance.
Why understanding yourself is not always enough
You may already know that you overthink, withdraw, become self critical or return to the same kind of relationship. Seeing the pattern matters, but it does not always change it.
Difference is part of therapy too
Race, culture, class, gender, sexuality, faith, neurodiversity, family expectations and belonging can all shape how you experience yourself and other people.
My own identity and presence may also mean different things to you. I do not assume what those meanings are, but there is room to think about them when they matter. My previous work includes senior leadership in race equity and I am a BAATN member.

Frequently asked
Common questions about individual therapy
Some of the questions that can come up when you are deciding whether individual therapy feels right for you.
What is the difference between therapy, counselling and talking therapy?
The terms overlap. Talking therapy is a broad description for support based mainly on conversation. I use the word therapy because it best describes the way I work, but you may have arrived here searching for counselling or talking therapy in Enfield.
Do I need to know exactly what is wrong before contacting you?
No. Many people begin with a feeling that something is not quite right without yet knowing how to explain it. We can begin with what you do know and think about the rest together.
What happens in the initial consultation?
The initial consultation gives you space to describe what has brought you to therapy, ask questions and get a sense of how I work. It also helps me consider whether regular therapy with me would be suitable for what you need. Regular therapy is not automatically offered following a consultation.
How often would we meet?
I usually work with people weekly at a regular time. Consistency helps the therapy develop and gives us enough continuity to understand patterns over time.
How long does individual therapy last?
Some people come with a particular area they want to think about while others want more open ended therapy. We would agree an initial way of working and review it as the therapy develops.
Can individual therapy help with relationship difficulties?
Yes. Individual therapy can help you understand how you experience closeness, conflict, trust and loss, as well as patterns that may appear in relationships with partners, family, friends or colleagues.
Do you offer online therapy?
Yes. I offer online individual therapy throughout the UK alongside in person appointments in Enfield, North London.
