Sessions Offered:

I am a UKCP-registered group and individual psychodrama psychotherapist with extensive experience in hospital and rehabilitation settings as well as in private practice in London.

My work at Moon focuses on helping women navigate the roles visited upon them by bodily, hormonal and psychological change, exploring ways in which to transform obstacles into empowerment and frustration into curiosity. Presentations include:

  • Premenstrual Syndrome
  • Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder
  • Miscarriage
  • IVF journey
  • Pregnancy
  • Breastfeeding challenges
  • Perinatal and/or postnatal depression and/or psychotic symptoms
  • Perimenopause.

An initial consultation, whilst tailored to your unique needs, will generally include creating a visual of your challenge(s) either using art, colours or small objects. Psychodrama is all about identifying the roles we embody in any one moment (e.g. practitioner, client, mother, woman, partner, worker, eater, feeder...), understanding their nuances and what is needed for some roles to be developed, supported, diminished or evolved in order for meaningful change to happen, whether that is in response to your body and mind or to others you feel impact your life and health. You may wish to simply identify these in a single session or to go forward with a time-limited or open-ended course of psychodrama psychotherapy for us to navigate the journey together.

I trained between 2015 and 2023 at the London Centre for Group and Individual Psychotherapy and have worked in both NHS and private hospital and rehabilitation settings with both groups and individuals as well as in private practice since 2018.

I am currently developing a strand of psychodrama work specifically for couple role work, and have a particular interest in the potential of psychodrama to help women strengthen their relationships with their evolving bodies and the resulting impact on mind, self-image and self-perception.

Wow, wow, wow! What an amazing response we've had to our plea for donations towards the Women Supporting Women Fund. Thank you to all these lovely folk who donated in January. Thanks to you, eight women were able to access the support they wanted from Moon Women's Health. However, unfortunately the waiting list continues to grow and is three months long at the moment. Therefore, when you're booking a session at Moon and would like to support your community, please tick the box to add an additional £3 - it all adds up! You can find more details about the fund, and donate directly via our bio.

Happy Imbolc to you all. The mid-point between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox - with our backs to the cold and our faces in the sun. Today we honour the Goddess Bridgid, who had so powerful a hold on the celtic imagination, the Catholics had to make her into a Saint. She is a Goddess of fire, healing and birth, who leads us towards Spring. Enjoy your Sunday 🌱

This weekend we welcome the mid-point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox, with our backs to the cold and our faces to the sun. The year is turning, a moment to pause, reflect and celebrate. With this in mind, we have four beautiful offerings for you. On Saturday afternoon Lucy Kohli introduces us to Libdo, a chance to rediscover our pelvic power and sensuality. This session is now “waiting list only”, but we have a new date in March for you to try. On Saturday evening Chi Chong brings us into circle, to celebrate the full moon and to pause before the new lunar year in February - with breathwork, meditation and restorative yoga. On Sunday afternoon Heidi Alden invites us to join the Death Café – an opportunity to explore death in a relaxed atmosphere, cake included! On Sunday evening Kerry Miller and Christel Stanfield-Bruce welcome us into a space of deep relaxation with conscious breathing to calm the mind, relax the body, and reconnect with yourself. So lay down your markers for the year, take a pause, feel the ground beneath your feet and welcome the turning of the year. More info and book via our bio.
