I often integrate CBT, ACT and Assertion Training to address self-criticism and people-pleasing patterns.
Whatever you're facing right now, you don't have to go through it alone. Whether you’re managing anxiety, stress, burnout, or a lifetime of saying yes when you mean no, therapy can help you understand yourself and create lasting change. I enjoy working with adults who often describe themselves as people-pleasers — people who care deeply for others but find it hard to set boundaries or feel “good enough”.
Together, we’ll explore the patterns that keep you over-giving or self-critical, and build new ways of relating to others that can help you to feel more calm, confident, and authentic.

I draw from CBT, ACT, DBT and compassion-focused approaches, tailored to you and what brings you to therapy.

Therapy can be beneficial when something has challenged our usual ways of coping or when something in our lives just doesn't feel right. Triggers might include anxiety, anger or low mood, illness such as cancer or a heart condition, increased stress, relationship problems, bereavement, or a life transition. You might be looking for emotional support as well as deeper insight, a "road map" and some "navigational skills" to help find the best path for you. All are welcome, including neurodiverse people and those from minority cultures and faiths.

Many people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who hold themselves to very high standards, yet privately feel anxious, burnt out, or self-critical. Deciding to speak to a psychologist can take real courage, especially when you’re used to being the one others rely on.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, and the deeper issues caused by traumatic experiences. I am trained in EMDR, which can help people process and move forward from experiences that continue to feel unresolved or intrusive.

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.
