I facilitate space that allows co-created sessions, that suit the individual needs of those that I work with. There is no pressure to make art within the sessions but there is always a selection of art materials, alongside other creative tools to aid exploration of your inner world. Through the therapy, my clients are able to build a stronger sense of who they are and of the patterns that have formed in their lives and to consequently, begin to make the changes in their life and in their relationships that they desire. My work is also informed by Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS).
My work is trauma informed, socially engaged and intersectional in its focus with the intention of being a safer space for individuals within the LGBTQ+ community. I follow a person centred approach, creating a unique relationship with each client. I offer an open, non judgemental space that nurtures a growing understanding of self and one's life experiences
Please do get in contact to check availability and hopefully we can get a first session booked in. I am very happy to offer a free 20 minute consultation so that you can then get as sense of whether we might be a good match for us to then begin to work together. (Please check your junk mail if you have not heard form me in 3 working days).

I can help you with many issues but I would say that my main experience has been trauma work. This could be early relational trauma connected to family experiences, sexual trauma and trauma connected to identity. Trauma effects our mental health in many ways, but typically in anxiety, depression, addiction, self harm, suicidal ideation and relationship issues, all of which I can help you with.
