I support adults and adolescents through life’s challenges. My passion lies in working collaboratively with neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ individuals, offering person-centred, trauma-informed, and strengths-based support. I believe healing and growth happen when you feel safe to show up as your authentic self.
That’s why I provide inclusive, affirming and non-pathologising counselling tailored to your unique lived experience.
Whether you are navigating a specific challenge or simply wanting to understand yourself better, I will walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and care.
As a neurodivergent and queer-affirming practitioner with lived experience, I can help with anxiety, burnout, masking, overwhelm, rejection sensitivity, low self-worth, sensory overload, big emotions, gender identity, grief, sexuality, coming out (or not), family and relationship challenges, minority stress, sexual assault, domestic violence and more.
I’m committed to helping clients explore their stories, identify patterns that no longer serve them, strengthen self-understanding, and achieve their therapy goals — at their own pace, and in their own way.
