I bring kindness and curiosity to our work together, creating a supportive and collaborative space where we can begin to make meaning of your experience. As we reflect on your past and present, your relational patterns, and your ways of being in the world, space can be created to process your thoughts and emotions and to explore new perspectives. By encouraging an interest in your feelings in the present moment and the truth of your immediate experience, I nurture self-acceptance and self-compassion.
Therapy can help you to process your difficulties and feel more connected, allowing for a greater sense of freedom in everyday life.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. Speaking with a therapist can provide a safe space to explore your feelings and find clarity—it’s a step toward taking care of yourself.
Or, if things with your partner are wobbly and you are struggling to get on as well as you used to; perhaps you are arguing more and you seem to have lost the magic of when you first met, then reach out and let's talk it through. You don’t have to go through this alone. A therapist can help you navigate what you’re feeling and support you in finding ways to feel better as a couple or an individual.

I understand that everyone's story is different, and it's okay to need some help telling it. I am an MA-trained Dramatherapist, specialising in supporting children and adolescents to thrive. I know starting therapy can feel scary, so making sure you feel safe and comfortable is my biggest priority. I am particularly experienced and confident working with neurodivergent young people, who may have been consistently failed by the system and sadly experienced trauma along the way. I can offer a warm listening ear, gentle yet effective psychotherapy interventions, as well as a big dose of playfulness along the way!

It isn’t easy being the cycle breaker. Have you ever heard that you are ‘too sensitive’ or felt that your feelings are ‘too much’? Have you ever felt like you are the only one willing to acknowledge what makes everyone else put their heads in the sand? In your family, there may have been abuse, a lack of acceptance for who you are, or even just no space for talking about emotions. There may be historic traumas no one will talk about or patterns that go unacknowledged, and you are left holding the ball on everyone’s behalf. You may experience feelings of perfectionism, disconnection, or guilt about resting or caring for yourself.
