I see adults seeking support for a range of mental health conditions and stressors. I specialise in ADHD, mood disorders, perinatal mental health, and attachment (relationship) issues. I endeavor to provide a warm and relaxed atmosphere in therapy, characterised by a nonjudgmental and collaborative approach.
I am known for bringing curiosity, honesty, and humour to sessions to lighten the process. I employ an integrative approach to therapy that draws on a range of traditional and modern techniques including CBT, schema therapy, and internal family systems.
I believe that psychotherapy can foster greater self-awareness, growth, and resilience; leaving us better prepared to cope with life’s uncertainties. Whether you’re new to therapy or returning, welcome.

Initial sessions involve a comprehensive clinical assessment to understand the client's history, current needs, and to inform treatment. I use measures and provide resources to clients, encouraging learning and self-therapy between sessions. My goal is to empower clients, helping them develop greater self confidence and belief in their resilience.
