I work with women who are ready to understand themselves more deeply, gently untangle old patterns, and make peace with the parts of their past that still feel heavy. Many of the women I see grew up having to be strong, independent, or emotionally self-reliant, and now find themselves navigating anxiety, relationship stress, identity shifts, people-pleasing, or a quiet sense of not being enough.
My approach blends person-centred therapy, ACT, and somatic awareness, helping you reconnect with your body, settle your nervous system, and explore what's underneath it all, at a pace that actually feels safe.

At times we all feel anxious, stuck, lost, alone or empty. Sometimes it is fleeting, sometimes it stays for a while and sometimes it seems it is never going to leave. No two people are the same and I am committed to a collaborative approach towards understanding you and find a pathway to best resolve your emotional difficulties. I draw on a range of psychological treatment approaches including Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Eye Movement Densensitisation and Reprocessing, and Internal Family Systems. I recently have completed training in Deep Brain Reorienting to process lingering shock from trauma.

You've probably spent a long time being told you're too much, too sensitive, too intense, or not trying hard enough. You may have only recently discovered that you're neurodivergent, and that discovery might have answered some things while making others feel more complicated.
I work with neurodivergent women navigating the aftermath of that, the identity questions, the exhaustion that rest doesn't fix, the relationships that feel harder than they should, and the weight of parenting while you're still figuring out who you are.

I work with people who are carrying more than they can sort through alone including adolescents, adults, and couples navigating eating disorders, perinatal mental health, anxiety, mood, trauma, neurodiversity, life transitions, and workplace stress.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
