I completed my post-graduate psychotherapy training at Tavistock Relationships, an internationally renowned institution for couple psychotherapy, training and research.
I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Georgia. I also hold a registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I am also a graduate member of Tavistock Relationships Association of Psychotherapists and Counsellors.
In addition to my professional qualifications, I also hold a Masters in Clinical Social Work from the University of Chicago, PGDip in Practice Education from Goldsmiths University, and Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a concentration in Women’s and Gender Studies.
My main areas of focus are supporting relationships, divorce and separation, parenting/co-parenting, and intimacy issues.

How I can help
Couple and Individual Therapy
Couple Therapy
Every relationship has its highs and lows, but when conflicts arise, or the spark begins to fade, it’s easy to feel disconnected or unsure how to move forward. Couples therapy offers a safe, judgment-free space where you and your partner can work together to understand each other on a deeper level, rebuild trust, and strengthen your bond.
Whether navigating life transitions, managing conflict, parenting challenges, communication difficulties, family issues, intercultural difficulties, or rekindling intimacy, we will work towards establishing new ways of relating that feels more fulfilling and productive. Taking this step shows immense courage and commitment to your relationship. It’s a chance to invest in each other and your future together.
Individual Therapy
Individual psychodynamic therapy offers a unique and transformative journey to better understanding yourself and making meaningful changes. It’s not just about tackling surface-level issues—it’s about digging deeper to the ‘roots’ and uncovering the “why” behind your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Sometimes, you might feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating in your life and relationships.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, low mood & depression, angry feelings, difficulties at work, loneliness, self-esteem & confidence issues, family problems, sexual difficulties, trauma, relationship challenges, or simply seeking personal growth, psychodynamic therapy can be a powerful tool to help you thrive. Taking the first step can feel daunting, but it’s also the beginning of a life-changing journey. You don’t have to face it alone—let’s start unlocking the best version of you, one session at a time.
