Everybody wants to be heard, believed, validated and respected. I teach strategies to manage complicated and overwhelming feelings. I love to help individuals grow and develop interpersonally and learn how to have better more satisfying relationships with themselves and others. I am passionate about working with people to unpack and explore early childhood trauma, facilitate self-exploration, examine emotional blind spots and understand relationship patterns in order to have a functional, happy and healthy existence.
I specialise in Trauma, Child Sexual Abuse and Personality Disorders. I work holistically and understand that dysfunction does not stem merely from biochemistry of the brain. There are many elements involved in creating problematic experiences, so understanding YOU in context with your environment is crucial.
Confidentiality, safety, integrity and transparency are the hallmarks of my practice. My role is to identify and harness your strengths, build on your strategies and support you with evidence-based tools to overcome dysfunction, distress and inner turmoil so you can become your best self. Reach out now and begin the journey. You are so worth it.
