I have a special interest in eating disorders and supporting people to develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with food, their bodies and themselves. I address issues such as disordered eating, body image issues, low self-esteem, perfectionism, anxiety, depression, shame, unresolved trauma and social difficulties.
I create a space where you can feel truly heard, a place where you can be honest, unfiltered and completely yourself; free from the pressure of needing to have it all figured out. I meet my clients with care and respect for where they are in their individual process of change and recovery.

I am genuine, direct, open and also have a sense of humour (though it is twisted/cynical/dark). I work best when you feel comfortable, if that means we swear a lot in session - I am happy to make that sacrifice! I work clients across many areas from complex trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, depression and workplace issues.
I believe it is important to work with clients - not dictate to them. My preferred treatment method is to focus on the areas that you want to work on. I believe a partnership not a prescription is important. Sticking to values means more than putting them on a website - it means actually living them.

You’re kind, thoughtful, and gentle but inside you feel overwhelmed, unseen, or emotionally drained. Perhaps you’ve spent years with partners who invalidate you, talk down to you, or leave you walking on eggshells. You overthink, feel deeply, and get snappy when stressed or overloaded. You want to break painful patterns, manage your emotions, reduce anxiety, and finally experience relationships that feel calm, safe, and supportive.

You can pause here for a moment. Perhaps there are areas in your life or relationships that are difficult to make sense of, or you’ve found yourself caught in patterns that leave you feeling disconnected, overwhelmed or unsure of what you need. Maybe intimacy, sexuality or connection has become complicated, or experiences from the past are affecting how you relate to yourself or others. You might not have the words yet, that’s okay. I work with my clients to slow things down, build safety first and individualise the therapeutic process, to then explore what’s stuck, heavy or simply needing care and attention.

I work with teens (16+) and adults who feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or disconnected from themselves and their lives. Many of the people I support struggle with perfectionism, burnout, overthinking, self-criticism, people pleasing, or feeling “not good enough.” I also have a special interest in eating disorders, trauma, and neurodivergence. Therapy can be a space to slow down, better understand yourself, build emotional safety, and reconnect with the life you want to live.

Autism Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for autism?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) has come to be considered the standard treatment for children with autism spectrum disorder, and research has confirmed its effectiveness for many children. Therapists trained in ABA techniques work with children (and their parents) on developing social skills, communication and learning abilities, and everyday habits of hygiene and grooming. The clinician will tailor their program to the child’s particular need but the overarching goal will be to help them advance as far as possible toward independence based on their level of symptoms and decrease the need for additional special services. Families should seek a mental health professional specifically trained in ABA, and holding special certification in the technique, who has extensive experience not only with the approach but in using it with children with the same level of symptoms as the child who needs care.
How does ABA work?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) sessions, which typically focus on positive reinforcement, can be intensive, lasting two or more hours several times a week, and continuing for two years or more. Therapists can also be expected to ask parents to take an active role in reinforcing lessons. Research has found that the technique can lead to major improvements that decrease the need for additional special services.
How does treatment for autism work?
Therapy sessions based on Applied Behavior Analysis will likely be frequent, intensive, and highly structured. After a thorough assessment, a therapist will help a child understand and develop skills in a range of areas, including communication, motor skills, social skills, self-care, play, and academic skills, as well as routines of daily living like hygiene. Typically, the therapist will help a child break down the components of a behavior—often referred to as the antecedent (what prompts an action), the behavior, and the consequence(what immediately follows)—and then reward the child at every step, while also asking parents to reinforce the lessons, and the rewards, throughout the day. This core therapy may be supplemented by occupational or speech therapy, and antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anticonvulsants may be prescribed to address specific severe symptoms.
How long does therapy for autism take?
Some people with autism spectrum disorder may be engaged in some level of therapy for many years, but research shows that treatment will be most effective if it is begun early and delivered intensively. When therapy begins by age 3, children tend to be better able to grasp and adopt the skills needed to manage everyday life, including attending school and establishing social relationships. This type of early-intervention treatment regimen is highly structured, typically involving 20 to 40 hours of one-on-one therapy per week, along with additional hours of engagement managed by parents, for a period of two years or more, although the duration of treatment is dependent on the child’s level of symptoms and pace of progress.
