If you are haunted by traumatic past or challenged by present life circumstances, I invite you to take an active step towards clarity, self-understanding and change. Whether it is about making sense of childhood experiences or improving current relationships with self and others, psychoanalytic and existential approach with a close focus on childhood experiences provides a solid way forward.

Therapy is a safe space to help you speak openly. The goal is to help you build an understanding of your thoughts, emotional and behavioural responses. This assists clients with decision making, problem solving and focusing on adaptive rather than unhelpful coping styles. My therapeutic approach is based on CBT/CBT-E, schema therapy, behavioural approaches, motivational interviewing and emotion focused therapies. Sessions will involve strategies and homework tools to help optimise your goals and outcomes.

You may be carrying pain that’s hard to put into words. Perhaps it’s the echo of past trauma, the fog of anxiety or depression, or the quiet ache of grief that doesn’t seem to shift. Maybe you’ve spent years trying to hold everything together, all while feeling like you’re falling apart inside. You’re tired—of the overthinking, the emotional numbness, the disconnect in your relationships, the constant inner critic. You long for relief, but more than that, you want clarity, self-compassion, and a sense of wholeness.
