I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand, such as ongoing anxiety, behaviours that feel hard to stop, or difficulties around sex, relationships, or shame.

My approach is calm and collaborative, focused on understanding what’s driving these patterns and supporting you to think things through and decide what feels right for you. Therapy with me isn’t about judgement or quick fixes, but about moving from understanding towards meaningful change. I’m a qualified

I know what it’s like to feel unseen, misunderstood, or like you don’t quite fit into the boxes society expects of you. Maybe you’re struggling with anxiety that feels like it’s always buzzing in the background, or depression that makes even the simplest tasks feel impossible. Perhaps you’re navigating the challenges of being neurodivergent in a world that isn’t always accommodating, or exploring your identity in a way that feels both liberating and daunting. Whatever brings you here, I want you to know this: you don’t have to face it alone.

You may look capable on the outside — the steady one others rely on — yet privately feel anxious, disconnected, or increasingly strained in your relationships. Often it isn’t just stress, but patterns in communication and attachment that quietly erode closeness over time. Many people begin therapy individually and realise their personal growth is closely linked to their relationships. I offer calm, thoughtful therapy for individuals and couples seeking clarity, depth and lasting change.

You've probably been working hard to manage your anger, and are finding yourself more frustrated than ever.
The problem with anger is that the harder you try to manage it, the more stubborn it gets. But it's also incredibly misunderstood and there is so much more to learn about it. I don't work only with anger, in fact, a lot of my work with anger has come out of working around something else entirely.
