As an Embodied Arts Psychotherapist, I support you to reconnect with your body, feel and make sense of your emotions, and experience transformation through your own divine wisdom. My approach is a unique, collaborative, and intuitive process where the arts and body-based practices come together, offering soulful guidance and a space to express, release, and return to presence and wholeness. My Soul, Mind, Body approach is inspired by the Sikh practice of “EK” (Oneness). When these three elements are balanced, they foster harmony, resilience, and healing.

My friends would describe me as warm, bubbly, and compassionate. I’m always happy to make time for others because I know how important it is to feel heard and supported. I understand that attending therapy and seeking help can feel nerve-wracking, and I want you to know that you're not alone in this journey. Having grown up in a culture where mental health wasn’t openly discussed, I’m passionate about breaking the stigma and encouraging open, judgment-free conversations. As a new parent myself, I also understand how challenging big life changes can be, and I truly empathise with the importance of prioritising mental wellbeing.

Do you find yourself deeply affected by everyday situations, often feeling emotionally overwhelmed, anxious, or highly sensitive? Are you stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, struggling with boundaries, low self-esteem, or inner conflict? If that resonates with you, you're in the right place. I'm a Psychotherapist offering online therapy, and I specialise in working with individuals who identify as emotionally sensitive, self-critical, or overly responsible in relationships. As someone who is neurodivergent, I bring lived understanding to working with those who feel misunderstood or disconnected from their authentic selves.

No question is too big or small to bring to therapy. Perhaps you have a sense that something in your life isn’t feeling quite right and would like to make sense of this, or perhaps you are struggling with issues within relationships with loved ones and would like for these to improve. It may be that you have been struggling with low mood, depression or anxiety and have taken the first step of seeking support. As a Systemic Psychotherapist, I work with Families, Couples and Individuals. I work in a way which is collaborative, recognising and drawing upon people’s strengths.
