I am an experienced, UKCP, BPC registered psychoanalytic psychotherapist. I am director of the Eaton Gate Practice and work in Belgravia, London Victoria, SW1. I provide a confidential, safe space where, without judgment or criticism, we can consider what is making you unhappy.

”We are never finished with grief. It is part of the fabric of living.” Love makes memories and life precious; the grief that comes to us is proportionate to that love and is inescapable.”
V.S.Naipaul

About
