Ok! Is it time to do something about how you have been feeling? It could be that you have been struggling with your negative thoughts, work stress, health challenges, difficulties in your relationships, increased anxiety, low mood, or all of the above and then some. That is the first step, recognising that you can do something different right now to change the way you feel. You may or may not have sought support in the past but that was then, and this is now. It is never too late to put yourself first and prioritise what you need.

If you’re struggling with the impact of sexual or domestic violence, you may feel anxious, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode. Trauma can manifest in many ways—difficulty trusting others, emotional numbness, feeling constantly on edge, or struggling with self-worth. These are not signs of weakness; they are your mind and body’s way of trying to protect you. Healing from trauma isn’t just about talking—it’s about reconnecting with yourself. I integrate somatic approaches that focus on the connection between your body and mind, helping you release stored trauma and develop a sense of safety within yourself.

It starts with a hello...but I know that starting the conversation can be difficult at times. Life brings its share of challenges but no one needs to suffer in isolation. I am here to walk this journey with you, so you can become a better version of yourself. I am a firm believer that not everyone experiences even the same issue the same way. Therefore, being flexible in dealing with the differing needs of clients, is a necessary skill I have honed over the years.

I work with highly sensitive adults who want to make sense of their emotions, rebuild self-trust, and regain the confidence to show up in their lives authentically.
If you often feel like your emotions are overwhelming, like the anxiety is always just below the surface, or low mood makes it hard to get through the day I see you.
Maybe you find yourself overthinking every decision or doubting your worth, unsure if you can trust your own instincts because you've learned to silence how you're feeling and get on with it. You might feel disconnected from yourself, as though the world is moving too fast and you're struggling to keep up.
