My ideal client is someone who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected — someone who knows they want something to change in their life but isn’t quite sure how to begin. They may be navigating anxiety, grief, low self-worth, relationship or family conflict, or simply struggling with the weight of everyday life. Often, they have spent a lot of time “keeping it all together” for others and are now starting to recognise the need to prioritise themselves.
Their goals may vary — some want to feel less anxious, others want to heal from past trauma, strengthen relationships, or rediscover their sense of identity.

The drive for personal development is something we all share, and it is a journey best navigated in good company. Psychotherapy can be a powerful force in this process.
Although therapy is different for everyone, my goal is to provide a calm and grounded space to get curious, a little uncomfortable, and ‘do the work’.
My practice is influenced by a number of well-researched therapy models, each offering valuable tools and insights from which we intergrate the parts best suited to your care. It’s like crafting a recipe… blending the right ingredients at the right time to meet your specific needs.

Counselling is a creative, very human process. I work with a person centred, integrative approach drawing from a range of counselling modalities. Attunement in the therapeutic relationship is key. This ensures that the counselling process is flexibly designed to meet your needs. Reflecting on one’s deepest issues, life path, pain and joy can be a transformative experience leading to insights and change. Witnessing and facilitating this therapeutic process and positive outcomes for clients is what continually renews my passion for this work. I work with adults, teens and children. For younger children I work with play therapy.

Life can feel overwhelming when the world isn’t built for the way you think, feel, or process experiences. Many of my clients—children, teens, and adults—struggle with overwhelm, feeling out of control or unsafe, daily functioning, emotional regulation, identity, or relationships. Some seek support in navigating neurodivergence, while others face trauma, anxiety, or depression. Families often feel lost, unsure how to advocate for their children or themselves. My goal is to empower you with understanding, strategies, and confidence to move forward in a way that aligns with who you truly are.

Many of the people I work with are dealing with the impacts of childhood experiences - things like sexual abuse, emotional neglect, or simply not getting the kind of support they needed early on. These early dynamics can leave a lasting mark, even if life looks fine from the outside. But therapy doesn’t need to start with a clear story. Some people come in just knowing something isn’t quite right. My approach tends to suit people who’ve found short-term strategies helpful but limited, or who’ve had trouble feeling connected in past therapies. We go at your pace, and take the time needed to get to the heart of things.
