I work with autistic children and teenagers and support young people navigating self-harm and suicidal feelings. I also work with adults healing from childhood trauma. Whether you are a child learning to understand big emotions, a young person facing learning new pressures, I can help. For adults, this might mean working through difficult relationships or finding it hard to feel truly seen at work or at home. Together, we will find a way forward that feels right for you.
I am particularly passionate about supporting children through trauma and adults healing from childhood experiences. Every client is unique so I tailor my approach to your individual needs. Whether you are facing specific challenges or simply want to understand yourself better, I am here to support you on that journey.
My training has given me evidence based therapeutic approaches and the skills to support children and adults through a wide range of challenges. I have learned my role is not to have all the answers, it is to create a safe space where you can find your own.

I am particularly passionate about supporting children through trauma and adults healing from childhood experiences. During our initial sessions, we will gently explore what has brought you here and work together to shape a plan that feels right for you. For children, this often happens through creative play, at their own pace. Many clients notice a shift within the first few weeks.
