My ideal client is someone who has lived with developmental trauma and long-standing emotional patterns that leave them feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck. They may function well externally but carry a deep sense of instability or loneliness inside. They want to understand themselves, break repetitive relational cycles, and feel real, grounded, and connected. They’re seeking depth, stability, and meaning because survival mode is no longer enough — they’re ready for genuine, lasting change.
I specialise in developmental trauma and long-term relational healing. I offer calm, attuned, depth-focused therapy to help you understand patterns, regulate emotions, and feel more grounded and connected. I have 20 years' experience, and am expert in therapeutic recovery from developmental trauma.
You don’t have to keep carrying this alone. If you feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in old patterns, therapy can offer the steady support you’ve been missing. I provide a calm, grounded space to help you feel more real, connected, and understood. If this resonates, I’d be glad to explore this work with you.

I help with developmental trauma, emotional disconnection, relational patterns, and chronic overwhelm. A typical treatment plan involves steady, attuned sessions that focus on understanding your history, strengthening regulation, and building safer relationships with yourself and others. Over time, you can expect greater stability, clarity, connection, and a more grounded sense of self.

I use relational, trauma-informed, and depth-oriented psychotherapy, integrating attachment work, embodied awareness, and gentle exploration of your inner world. Sessions are calm, steady, and collaborative. You can expect a safe, grounded space where you're met with warmth and attunement, and where change unfolds at a pace that feels manageable and respectful to you.
