Feeling stuck and disconnected? If you're ready to break free from survival mode and find your light, I am here to guide you. My individualized approach empowers you to gain control, clarity, and confidence. Together we can re-ignite your resilience, uncover your strengths, and re-energize your spirit, paving the way for profound transformation. Let's create space for new ways of being and embrace the life you deserve. Join me with a personalised package, to shift patterns, break cycles, and step confidently into your future.
I offer Brainspotting (BSP), Internal Family System (IFS)-Informed Services, and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), including FLASH, Four Blinks & G-TEP. I provide 90-min sessions and therapy blocks (3 hours), utilizing guided imagery, somatic, and creative processes. This approach fosters deep connections between your brain, body, and mind.
Starting your journey can be the first step towards transformation. You hold the key and have the expertise in your life; I'm here with a torch, some treats, and water to guide you. If you're seeking change and need a map or just some extra support, please reach out. Together, we can navigate the path ahead. I offer free 30-minute introductory calls.
