Are you feeling unsure how to move forward? Maybe you're navigating relationship struggles or trying to make sense of your life? Most people come to therapy because they want something to change. But lasting transformation starts with understanding how things are right now. From a young age, our nervous systems adapt to help us navigate the world, creating automatic patterns of feeling and reacting. Whilst they once served us, they can become limiting over time, keeping us stuck in ways that no longer align with who we are or what we need. I am here to help you gently uncover and understand these ingrained patterns.
I blend talk therapy with mindful, somatic psychotherapy. With a BA (Hons) in Psychology, trained in Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy, and a Certificate of Somatic Sexology, I offer a safe & compassionate space where you can make sense of your experiences, gain clarity, find greater ease in life. I'm also completing a Master of Counselling.
It takes time to build trust with a new therapist, so I offer a free 15-min connection call to help you decide if I’m a good fit. Send me an email if you'd like to book an appointment. :) I would love to meet you and forward to connecting with you!

Body Mind Conversations is a form of body-centred mindful psychotherapy with roots in Hakomi Psychotherapy, Counselling and Somatic Practices. In sessions, we explore the unconscious patterns & conditioning that affect us immensely, but that our minds may be unaware of. With sensitivity and compassion, we'll explore how you experience the world now, gently uncovering new possibilities & pathways.
