Unlock Your Highest Potential: A Trusted Advisor for a High-Stakes World

As a psychotherapist, conflict-resolution specialist, and executive advisor, I am trusted to guide leaders, families, and organizations through their most critical challenges in the world's most high-stakes spaces.

My work is founded on a single principle: the most intractable conflicts, whether in a boardroom, a family enterprise, or a community, are driven by hidden, relational dynamics. Lasting solutions are found not by managing surface-level symptoms, but by diagnosing and healing the root cause.

My mission is simple but profound: to help you turn conflict, trauma, and pressure into opportunities for resilience, connection, and authentic leadership.

My Approach: The Human Systems Engineer

My approach bridges the inner world of human psychology with the outer world of power. My journey began not in a therapy room, but in the high-stakes world of power ( electrical, oil and gas) with global giants like Schlumberger, Baker Hughes, Siemens, Schneider Electric where I spent over a decade.

My engineering background trained me as a 'subsurface detective. My job was to use real-time data to diagnose critical failures in complex, multi-million-dollar systems.

Today, I apply that same diagnostic rigor to the most complex system of all: people.

My method is a unique fusion of three core disciplines:

Clinical Depth: As a Doctoral Researcher in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, I work with the deep, often unconscious patterns that drive behavior. I am trained in the most advanced modalities for complex trauma and personality disorders, and I apply this depth to my work in the NHS, Local Authorities and my private practice.

Corporate Acumen: With a decade in international corporate strategy, I understand the language of power, leadership, and high-stakes decision-making. I know the pressures that leaders and organizations face because I have lived in that world.

Cultural Intelligence: My work is grounded in the understanding that culture is the water we swim in. As the creator of the "Five Masquerades", a groundbreaking translation of RLT for an indigenous cultural context, my expertise is in adapting world-class therapeutic models to fit the unique cultural dynamics of an individual, family or organization.
