At Inner Grace Psychology, I support young adults and adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stressed, emotionally weighed down, or unsure how to move forward through a difficult season of life.
People may come to therapy for many reasons — sometimes because life feels heavy, relationships feel challenging, emotions feel hard to manage, or they simply need a safe space to talk and be heard.
My role is to gently support you as we explore what you are experiencing, understand what may be contributing to it, and work together toward practical steps that help you build clarity, inner strength, and emotional wellbeing.

I draw from EMDR, somatic and nervous system-informed approaches, ACT, mindfulness, EFT, creative interventions, and other experiential therapies.
I work with adults and couples experiencing trauma, anxiety, overwhelm, relationship difficulties, burnout, grief, and life transitions. Many of the people I support are carrying the impacts of complex trauma, difficult relationships, or long-standing patterns that no longer feel sustainable.
People often reach out when they feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected from themselves, stuck in survival mode, or aware that something needs to change but unsure where to begin. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and paced with care.

Sometimes life can feel like a lot. You may be anxious, grieving, feeling vulnerable or a little lost. Counselling allows you the opportunity to be seen and heard and explore what's going on. Occasionally your past can impact your here and now, and the way you deal with situations. I believe that effective therapy comes from being flexible with the therapeutic modalities used, and meeting you where you are at. I value and foster the importance of a collaborative approach to therapy. I offer a safe space for you to explore your experiences and to develop skills and understanding, which you can take into your day to day life.

I utilise CBT, ACT, Attachment Theory, NT, Transpersonal Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and psychoeducation.
One of the barriers to self-care is allowing yourself to go into the depths of your experiences. Often, we are challenged to explore and understand this profound chasm, to touch what is held there, to hear its messages, and to connect with compassion to the raw emotions that have been lying dormant for years or just surfaced. By peering into the abyss, we can gain deeper understanding of ourselves and insight into the meaning of our lives; transforming and opening up possibilities the future could hold for us.

I’m Daria, a counsellor who works with people carrying the effects of difficult family relationships. If you grew up with an emotionally immature or narcissistic parent or family member, you may have learned to question your feelings, keep the peace, or put everyone else’s needs ahead of your own. Those patterns can follow you into adulthood, shaping your confidence, attachment style, relationships and sense of self.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
