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.

Adjusting to change is one of the hardest things to do. Whether it is because of an intentional or purposeful change, or it is completely out of your control, finding your way safely to a place of balance and "normality" again can sometimes feel impossible. That change could be triggered by something really devastating, like losing a life partner or child, difficult relationships, poor mental health, a traumatic incident or event, illness or disability. Or maybe homelessness, job loss, migration. Or it could be something that only you see as problematic. All triggers are equally valid. Wherever there is change there is usually loss.
