Have you ever understood your struggles logically, but felt like your body and emotions haven't caught up? Many of my clients arrive feeling 'stuck' in painful, repetitive loops—whether that’s a challenging relational pattern, persistent anxiety, or past memories that still feel vivid and heavy today. I specialise in working with adults who haven't experienced the shift they hoped for through traditional talk therapy, guiding them to unpack core schemas and process deep-seated trauma using EMDR.
If you feel my approach aligns with what you're looking for, I warmly invite you to book a brief introductory call to see if we're a good fit.

When struggles are deeply rooted, standard coping strategies or surface-level talking therapies often aren't quite enough. My practice is focused on exploring beneath the surface. Apart from person-centered, CBT, DBT & ACT, I utilize Schema Therapy and EMDR to help adults process the past, understand their present reactions, and create lasting, structural change.
