Are you a new parent struggling to cope with the transition to motherhood? Are you feeling disorientated, lost and wondering who you now are since having a baby? Are you struggling to "enjoy every minute" of motherhood and therefore feel there must be something "wrong" with you? Do you feel that everyone around you seems to be moving on with their life but you are still trying to process and understand the journey that you now find yourself on? Do you feel like you are the only one struggling with new parenthood? Do you feel "seen" or understood as a person who has gone through the life-transforming rite of passage of giving birth?

Have you always felt different from the people around you? Maybe your mind never stops analysing, you get overwhelmed faster than others, or you’ve spent years masking just to fit in. You might be highly sensitive, autistic, ADHD, queer, or childfree, or simply someone who doesn’t have a "standard" way of life. From the outside it looks like you’ve got it all together, but you’ve started wondering if life really has to feel this hard.

Hi, I'm Talia. I offer warm and attuned counselling & psychotherapy. I use an integrative and somatic approach that can help clients emotionally regulate, disrupt unhelpful cycles, and make lasting changes. My specialities are in attachment, gender/sexuality, and trauma work. My masters in relationship therapy informs how I work with client's attachment styles. I also trained in a psychosexual therapy clinic to provide care for intimacy issues. Additionally, I am qualified in Brainspotting, which is a newer modality that came out of EMDR, which works with childhood, sexual, relationship, and discrimination trauma.

Don’t worry if you don’t feel ready to speak yet. Sometimes we begin with colour, image, silence, or simply what feels present. I use art as a gentle medium alongside therapy. My style is: your style, your pace, your story and how you want it.

I’m a coaching psychologist based in Edinburgh. I work with a small number of high-performing individuals navigating growth, pressure, or psychological inflection points — professionally or personally. I offer a discreet, bespoke coaching service — sometimes through monthly engagements, or intensive on-call days. This is not therapy, but a strategic psychological partnership. Together, we co-create a space where our relationship and the work you want to do is held safely, from a place of deep care. I use a theoretical coaching approach, working on your current and future life. Deep listening helps, as does challenge.
