Informed by Schema Therapy and attachment theory, I work with people who may be experiencing anxiety or OCD (including rumination and doubt cycles), relationship difficulties, identity concerns, low self-worth, emotional flatness or depletion, or a sense of feeling stuck in patterns that are hard to shift. Whether you're navigating specific challenges or longer-standing childhood wounds, we work together to understand what these patterns have been trying to do for you and what may now be getting in the way, creating space for greater self-understanding, self-compassion, and more flexible ways of relating.
From a place of shared understanding, sessions involve slowing things down in a collaborative way and developing a shared plan, which may include emotional processing, integrating cognitive and behavioural strategies, relational exploration, and skills-building. The focus is tailored to you.
Whatever brings you to therapy, I aim to offer a steady, attuned space where you feel safe, respected, and understood. The therapeutic relationship is central to this work, and together we move at a pace that feels manageable, with a focus on what matters most to you.
