PsychoAnalysis
and
Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy
My approach
I offer a space in which we can work therapeutically through the challenges you are experiencing; a space to explore, in an open and non-judgmental manner, any difficulties or questions present in your daily life.
​
​
I work both in short-term and open-ended therapy and I offer sessions in my East London practice and online. After a free initial consultation, we can decide if psychoanalytic psychotherapy could be right for you.
About
I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapy practitioner and former academic. I hold a PhD in language and literature from the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, USA), and I am a trainee at The Site for Contemporary Psychoanalysis in London, UK. My training is multidisciplinary and international, and I bring this in to my practice.
​
Beyond my private practice in East London, I have experience working in community-based mental health services, working with children, and with racialised migrant women. I have collaborated with The Psychosis Therapy Project (PTP) and its USEMI Racial Trauma Clinic, and with the Out of Hours Crisis Cafe at Islington Mind.
​
I am especially, but not exclusively, interested in accompanying individuals through parenting and relationship issues, antenatal and postnatal transitions, and questions of gender, migration, race and cultural identity.
I am insured, registered with UKCP and I abide by their Code of Ethics.
Why psychoanalysis?
Psychoanalysis is a psychotherapeutic approach, a talking cure, that looks to explore the unconscious conflicts that make us suffer and develop different psychological or somatic symptoms.
​
In examining our experiences, in an non-judgmental open way, we can gain an understanding on how our past conflicts might be conditioning our present and limiting our abilities to cope with and move through daily life in a creative way.
​
Psychoanalysis can help those suffering from depression and anxiety, it can offer a space to work through life transitions or difficult life processes. As a practice it welcomes anyone wanting to explore the dimensions of one's self or work on different issues of identity, sexuality, etc.
Initial consultation
I offer a free consultation to assess if a psychoanalytic treatment could be the right fit for you. I work both in English and Spanish and I see patients online and in person in Walthamstow, East London.
