About
I am an experienced psychosexual and relationship psychotherapist who completed three full degrees, two at Tavistock Relationships (Diploma in Psychosexual Therapy and MA in Psychodynamic couple and individual psychotherapy) in London and another at the University of Paris VIII (Licence de Psychologie – the equivalent of a BSc in Clinical Psychology) in France.
In my private practice online, I work with adults experiencing problems in their relationships and provide a safe, confidential and empathetic space for therapy. I specialise in couples with sexual issues and my goal is to help my clients rekindle their desire by focusing on paths to pleasurable, positive and playful sex.
As a bilingual individual, I can provide therapy in English and/or French. I am accredited by the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT) and a UKCP full Clinical Psychotherapist (College for Sexual and Relationship Psychotherapy CRSP). I am also a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a general member of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and the European Society for Sexual Medicine (ESSM). In France, I am part of the Syndicat National des Sexologues Cliniciens.
I offer weekly 50-minute sessions to couples from any cultural, racial or ethnic background – married or unmarried, and straight, gay or other non-binary sexual identities. I also provide therapy to individuals who wish to discuss problems in their relationships with others or personal sexual issues.
