Start building healthy secure relationships and self-confidence with my support, understanding and collaborative guidance on steps forward.
Trauma & Attachment Psychologist, Couples Therapist. Whether single or in a relationship you struggle with uncertainty, fear, a rollercoaster of emotions or a sense of doom. You doubt whether you are ever going to feel settled, confident or secure in relationships. Time and time again, after a honeymoon period, the same pattern shows up, either cold distance or heated fighting. You don't know how to get through so you overthink or get overwhelmed & attack or freeze wondering when it will end. Maybe an sense of relief when it does. Then loneliness sets in and the search starts again.

Maybe you’ve been stuck in old patterns, doubting yourself, or feeling disconnected from the person you want to be. You don’t have to have the answers right now, you just need a safe space to explore what’s going on for you.

I have a passion for understanding human behaviour, our motivations and what influences our choices, decisions, and actions whether conscious or subconscious.

With over a decade of experience in mental health and a Master's in Counselling Psychology, I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate anxiety, depression, self-worth, grief and relationship challenges.
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, self-doubt, or patterns in relationships they don’t understand. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling easily hurt or rejected, struggling with confidence, or feeling disconnected. Often these patterns develop through past experiences and quietly shape how we think, feel, and relate today. In therapy, we slow things down and explore what’s beneath these patterns with respect, care and insight. My clients come seeking clarity, deeper self-understanding, and meaningful change and together we work toward greater emotional balance, self-trust, and stronger relationships.

Self Esteem Therapists
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.

What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.

What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.

How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
