About

I help my clients gain self awareness and deepen their relationships at work and in their personal lives by delivering transformative change.

Before becoming a psychotherapist, business coach and facilitator, I worked in creative, media and publishing. This informs my unique approach to helping business leaders and their teams with my human-first business coaching and team development training.

I run a psychotherapy practice working with individuals and couples providing them with relief from emotional pain, encouraging greater self-understanding in order to lead healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Editor to therapist & Coach

In the late ‘90s I was part of the launch editorial team of Men’s Health Magazine. I helped build the title to become the world’s most successful men’s lifestyle brand.  At Men’s Health I was fascinated by the psychology of group dynamics - the combination of trust, communication and healthy conflict that helps teams fulfill their potential.

In the early ‘00s after a painful relationship end I re-trained as a therapist and began working at King’s College Hospital NHS Trust psychotherapy unit before setting up my own private therapy practice in central London.

In 2017 I moved to New York City, where I coached senior teams in global organisations such as Viacom, Meta and Atlassian. I also developed and launched Ignite, a coaching program for senior women at Dow Jones/The Wall Street Journal to gain the leadership skills to step into C-suite roles. I also worked with entrepreneurs, business leaders and their teams helping them develop leadership skills, creativity, communication, confidence-building and how to navigate change. In 2021 I moved my coaching and therapy practice to Paris, France for four years extending my business into the luxury and culture sectors. I run individual, group and team training around the world both remotely and in person.

Teaching

In 2010 I was a founding faculty of The School of Life in London, the global education organization founded by philosopher Alain de Botton, developing emotional intelligence training for individuals, businesses and organizations.

At The School of Life I help create and deliver new classes as well as lead workshops for local and international audiences. With the School I have' worked with global organization including Arup, Chanel, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Publicis, PWC, Apple, DLA Piper and American Express.

My stories on mental and emotional health, well being and personal development have been published by Saturday Telegraph Magazine, Sunday Times Style Magazine, Telegraph Luxury, Centurion, The Guardian, Departures (American Express), The Financial Times, Saturday Times Magazine, Elle Deco and The Observer Magazine.

Writing and Training

I write on emotional health for men in the New York Observer here and a column on coaching advice for men at MR PORTER.

I achieved Distinction in my MA and 1st Class Honors in my BA from Queen Mary College, London University. I have post-graduate certificates in journalism - London College of Communication UAL, couples psychotherapy and psychoanalytic studies - Tavistock Clinic NHS Trust. I am an Associate of the Royal Schools of Music (ARSM).

In New York I qualified as a negotiations expert with the Schranner Institute, the world’s leading negotiation and conflict resolution organization.

Since 2025 I live and work in London, U.K..
