While we all deserve to have a life that we feel secure in and a future that we can look forward to, in reality there are times when this simply isn't the case. It might be that we look for help with overwhelming feelings of anxiety and depression, or a little nagging voice at the back of the mind that says that now is the right time to talk to someone.  Or perhaps something quite clear and traumatic has happened. Working together, therapy can become a way of finding the words to make sense of confusing experiences.

I believe that mental health difficulties are meaningful and understandable reactions to painful life events and situations, and so these are best treated with compassion, curiosity and respect. In this way, we may not only overcome problems, but gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and our values, leading to a more balanced, fulfilling and enjoyable life. With a warm, caring approach to creating safe and reflective relationships, I can offer brief, focused therapy to build coping skills and overcome specific problems, or more in-depth work to build insight and release ingrained ways of being.

Do you ever feel caught in endless loops of overthinking or intrusive thoughts that feel too intense to ignore? Maybe you replay conversations, double-check decisions, or search for certainty that never comes. OCD can make you question everything, convincing you your thoughts say something terrible about you. It’s exhausting, leaving you stuck in your head instead of your life. I offer a calm, non-judgmental space to help you quiet anxiety, loosen OCD’s grip, and move toward what matters. I’ve also contributed to a BBC Sounds podcast on ADHD.
