If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn, you can reach out. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma and PTSD, painful relationships, or suicidal thoughts, you don’t have to face this alone. Get in touch, I offer a space for you to be heard, as a human to human. Together, we explore what hurts, understand what is happening inside you, and reconnect with your strength and hope, one step at a time.
When everything feels confusing or overwhelming, having someone who truly listens can change everything. I offer a compassionate, trauma-informed space where you truly matter. One by one we untangle what feels heavy for you, understand it and move slowly towards healing together.
If you’re ready to take the first step toward healing and self-understanding, I would be honoured to walk alongside you. You deserve to give yourself time and care, and together we can explore what feels most important for you right now. There is always hope, even in the smallest steps forward.

I specialise in supporting people experiencing depression, anxiety, and I have worked a lot with people who experience trauma through domestic abuse. I understand how depression often pulls us into the past and anxiety into the future, so I aim to help you gently return to the present, to feel grounded, seen, and safe.
