I offer a calm, trauma-aware space to explore sexuality, intimacy, relationships and emotional wellbeing at a pace that feels safe and manageable. My approach integrates talking therapy with somatic awareness, recognising the close relationship between the nervous system, lived experience and connection. I work with individuals and couples seeking greater ease, clarity and confidence in their intimate lives, whether that means addressing sexual difficulties, improving communication and boundaries, healing from past experiences, or reconnecting with desire. Sessions are paced carefully, with a strong emphasis on safety and consent.

I work with peopl who often feel like they're carrying more than everyone realises. You might be navigating ADHD, attachment difficulties, relationship struggles, a painful break-up, burnout, anxiety, or one of those life transitions that leaves you wondering where you went in the middle of it all. Many of my clients arrive feeling exhausted from trying so hard to understand themselves. They've read the books, listened to the podcasts, saved the Instagram posts, and know all the therapy buzzwords — but still find themselves stuck in the same patterns, wondering why it's so much harder than everyone makes it sound.
