Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of others, struggling to express your needs, or lost in the chaos of daily life? If you find yourself constantly putting others first, feeling unfulfilled, misunderstood, or battling anxiety about setting boundaries, know that you’re not alone. Many of us carry the weight of expectations - both from ourselves and those around us - and it can leave us feeling drained and disconnected from our true selves. Whether you're looking for a new therapist or trying out therapy for the first time, finding someone who has walked a similar path can be helpful.

As a therapist, I draw from my experiences as a parent, former teacher, and recovering people pleaser and perfectionist. My own journey of personal growth has taught me the importance of self-compassion and authenticity. In our sessions, you’ll find a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings and discover the strength to embrace your true self.

My approach is empathetic and collaborative, focusing on empowering you to build self-awareness and resilience. Together, we’ll address your challenges and develop the skills to express your needs confidently. Let's embark on this transformative journey together, so you can step into a life that honours your authentic self and fosters meaningful connections.

I use an integrative therapeutic approach because I believe there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to the healing process. Therefore, depending on your unique needs, I draw from approaches, such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Attachment Theory to create a comprehensive and effective treatment plan that promotes lasting change and growth.
