Fear has become its own epidemic. In today's world, many people are high functioning on the outside, but quietly carrying persistent anxiety, self-doubt, pressure to achieve, or the lingering sense that they're "not enough" on the inside. Before becoming a psychotherapist, I spent years performing on major stages while battling severe anxiety behind the scenes. I understand what it means to be confronted with repeated trauma, crushing perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and relentless self-critique. I share this small part of my story so you know that even those in the spotlight face a lot of darkness; you are not alone.
As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and MA in Counselling Psychology student under clinical supervision, I aim to help you navigate burnout, trauma, anxiety, loss, identity shifts, and major life transitions. Together, we'll work to build emotional stability, reconnect with self-trust, and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.
My approach integrates psychodynamic therapy, somatic regulation tools, and mindfulness techniques. I'm here to witness your story with empathy, attunement, and skill to create a space where safety and exploration coexist. If you are ready to share your inner world, I would be honoured to walk alongside you.

Common themes that often accompany chronic perfectionism or over-identification with performance include high-functioning anxiety, imposter syndrome, a harsh inner critic, depression, burnout, and loss of meaning. Together, we collaborate on regulation, self-trust, and sustainable confidence by cultivating acceptance and self-compassion, so these patterns no longer run your life from the shadows.

I draw from psychodynamic therapy, somatic approaches, mindfulness-based practices, and evidence-informed interventions. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor the work to your goals, history, and capacity through a trauma-informed lens. Beyond safety and stabilization, I specialize in maximizing psychological potential and enhancing human performance.
