You're struggling but you've been good at hiding it. Maybe it's anxiety that won't let up, persistent self-criticism, shame about things you can't seem to shake, or feeling disconnected from yourself and the people around you. Perhaps past experiences still affect you in ways that make everyday life harder than it needs to be. You're tired of just coping. You want to actually understand what's going on and find a way forward that feels real, not performative. You want to thrive and build a life that is meaningful and aligned. I want that for you too.
I offer evidence-based treatment combined with a deeply human and holistic approach. I have extensive experience of working in NHS mental health and physical health services, in addition to professional performance and wellbeing. I specialise particularly in working with trauma, self-criticism, shame, and relational difficulties.
I create a genuinely safe space where you can finally tell the truth - without judgement, without performing "fine," without needing it all figured out. My approach is both deeply human and highly professional. Whether through therapy or coaching, you don't need to pretend here. You need space to be seen and to reconnect with yourself.
