I am an experienced psychotherapist, having worked for more than 10 years as a clinician in the community mental health field supporting young people, adolescents, adults and families facing significant complex trauma. I am someone who values authenticity, humor and real connections. I try to keep therapy as human as possible, no unnecessary jargon, just genuine conversations that meet you where you are. If you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, shame, anger, overwhelm, numbness, dissociation or patterns you don’t fully understand but feel stuck in then I am able to help (See my website for more). I also offer parenting support
Having worked with many different therapeutic modalities, I now primarily use Internal Family Systems (IFS) because it offers the most compassionate and effective way I know to understand and work with the full complexity of human experience and create deep and lasting healing. I integrate somatic, polyvagal, AEDP and mindfulness based practices.
Healing with IFS often feels like creating space inside where there was once chaos or overwhelm. People begin to feel less hijacked by intense emotions, more grounded in their body and more able to respond rather than react. Over time this builds a sense of inner safety, clarity and trust in oneself, often described as simply "more authentically me".

I work with people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, parenting challenges and more. We take time to understand the different parts of you that hold pain or fear, building safety before going deeper. Therapy is steady and collaborative rather than rushed. Many people notice feeling more grounded, less reactive and more confident in themselves over time.

I primarily draw on Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, as I feel it offers the most complete compassionate, non-pathologising way of understanding even the most complex inner experiences. I find that IFS naturally integrates many elements found across other therapies, however remain flexible and integrative drawing on other therapeutic modalities when useful or when clients express interest.
