Seeing the same patterns in relationships, with family members, partners, friends, kids or at work? Do you feel lonely, anxious in connection, or like you can’t quite find your place with others? Or maybe your childhood left you with wounds that still shape how you show up today. I work with adults who want to understand where their patterns come from and genuinely change them. Not just manage symptoms. My work draws on attachment, family systems, nervous system regulation, somatic therapy, and emotionally focused approaches. Together we look at your history, relationships, issues & patterns to make lasting change.
I specialise in relational therapy, focusing on understanding how our past experiences shape our present relationships - both with ourselves and others. I integrate attachment theory, Family systems, emotion-focused therapy (EFT), psychodynamic and relationship therapy, to help you explore and shift the patterns that might be holding you back.
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, but you don’t need all the answers to begin. I’m here to support you without judgment. Together, we’ll work at your pace to help you reconnect with yourself & create the change you’re seeking. WE work with what's up now in context of what has happened in your life. Contact me now and I'll get right back to you.
