Whatever brings you to therapy, I believe that I can help to create a safe space, in which, together we can explore how to better understand your emotional difficulties, appreciate your skills and strengths and enable you to feel better equipped to build and manage a meaningful life.

Mental health is a broad topic. Even nowadays people seem to find it difficult to go to a therapist because of the stigma around mental health. I am here to fight for it ! Seeking help for your mental health is as natural as going to a doctor when you are physically ill or asking for extra hand when you cannot assemble your furniture on your own. Does that not sound natural and normal? So does seeking help for your health. Additionally, there are no such criteria in order to seek help. So in order to seek help it does not mean you have to have a diagnosed mental health problem.

I have worked with clients struggling with an array of Mental Health needs, including Depression, Anxiety , Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), Bi-Polar, Personality Disorder, Schizophrenia, anger management, and Bereavement.
