You may be at the beginning of your journey, unsure what's happening or where to start. Or you may have spent years trying to understand yourself and still feel stuck in familiar patterns. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, perfectionism, shame, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties and the effects of difficult past experiences and traumas. Whether you are looking for your first experience of therapy or have tried it before, we'll start where you are and work towards understanding yourself more deeply and creating meaningful change.
I help you understand the deeper patterns beneath what you're experiencing and, importantly, begin to change them. My work draws on person-centred, trauma-informed, attachment-based approaches, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
Therapy can feel daunting, especially if you're not sure what you need or have tried it before and felt something was missing. You don't need to arrive with everything figured out. We'll take time to understand what is happening and whether I might be the right person to support you. Contact me for a free consultation.

I work with anxiety, perfectionism, shame, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, relationship difficulties, OCD, self-worth, attachment difficulties and trauma. Together, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck and explore what lies beneath them. Over time, the aim is to develop greater emotional flexibility, self-understanding, self-trust and freedom to respond differently.
