After discovering your partner’s infidelity, you may experience nightmares, difficulty concentrating, disrupted sleep or appetite, and intense feelings of sadness, fear, or anger.

You may feel alone, overwhelmed, and unsure where to turn or who to trust.

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who are used to coping well but find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck or burnt out. This may relate to workplace stress, trauma, relationship difficulties or navigating a major life transition. I often work with professionals and people in high-pressure roles who are used to being the one others rely on. Sessions provide space to step back, make sense of what is happening, and develop practical strategies to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
