Mindfulness and guided meditation.
I am driven to support people who feel stuck, uncertain or trapped in their lives, and want to make a change. I am here to help those who are also hesitant about counselling or find traditional counselling settings to be stiffling, fake, tedious or overwhelming by offering walk and talk therapy outdoors combined with an honest and friendly, down-to-earth manner. My approach is collaborative, direct, and grounded in authenticity — with a strong emphasis on meeting clients where they are at, and guiding them alongside at their own pace, both literally and figuratively.

I'm a fully certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner & social work counsellor (NB trans), with over 20 years' experience working in community services. My work is grounded in social justice and liberatory practices that support self-agency, joy, pleasure & empowerment. I have a deep interest in relational & social trauma and use a somatic approach that acknowledges the external forces of power and harm. Our bodies hold protective patterns (or felt senses) in response to early attachment wounds, traumatic experiences, relational disruptions and structural pressures - together we work to safely integrate and release these patterns.

As a trauma therapist and multidisciplinary artist, I work at the intersection of relational healing, neuroscience, creativity, and cultural identity. My practice supports people navigating trauma, relationship patterns, and disconnection—from themselves, others and what gives them meaning in life; their values. I specialise in working with complex trauma, often rooted in experiences of intimate family violence, cultural rupture and developmental trauma. At the heart of my work is bringing emotion and memory together with the body, science, and creativity.

My style is collaborative, practical, and grounded in therapies like DBT, CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness.
You might feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, or unsure how to move forward. Maybe you’re dealing with anxiety, people pleasing, overthinking, or feeling like you’ve lost touch with who you are. It’s likely you’re carrying more than most people realise. I’m a psychologist who helps people work through trauma, relationship struggles, risky behaviours, and major life transitions. Therapy with me is about creating a safe space to unpack what’s going on and start feeling like the version of yourself you want to be.
