I work with adults, children and young people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted or stuck in patterns that no longer make sense. Many struggle with overthinking, low self-esteem, trauma, ADHD, neurodivergence, emotional regulation, school anxiety or relationship difficulties. My approach is warm, trauma-informed and practical, helping clients understand themselves with compassion, make sense of difficult emotions, and feel calmer, more confident and more connected in their daily lives.

Psychotherapist, MBACP Accred
Hello, and thanks for taking a look at my profile. I know how difficult it can be to sift through profiles and take that first step towards reaching out, especially when feeling scared, stuck or overwhelmed. Having worked with people for nearly 15 years, I’m interested in how our experiences, including past or present trauma, influence the way we relate to ourselves, others, the world around us, and how we find meaning in our lives. I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space to explore these experiences and work towards meaningful change.

Do you feel weighed down by depression, anxiety, emptiness, or a loss of meaning? Do relationships leave you lonely, unfulfilled, or stuck in patterns of people-pleasing? Are you troubled by traumatic or painful memories? As a relationally trained therapist, I help people build self-esteem, overcome anxiety, form more satisfying connections, and rediscover purpose. You may feel you’ve never truly belonged, or carry the wounds of childhood abuse, neglect, or bullying. You may live with an inner voice that’s often critical or unkind. Perhaps a sudden trauma, betrayal, or loss has shaken your life and left you questioning everything.

If you often feel misunderstood, overwhelmed by your emotions, or trapped in patterns you can’t quite explain, you’re not alone. Many of the people I work with appear capable on the outside while carrying shame, self-criticism, and the lasting impact of difficult experiences internally. They want to feel steadier, less reactive, and more in control of their lives. Together, we focus on building emotional resilience, understanding how the past is shaping the present, and creating meaningful change before things reach crisis point.
