I have a wide range of experience including personality disorder, veterans, looked-after children, developmental trauma, and psychosis among others.
What truly sets me apart is that I’ve been on both sides of the therapy couch. I know what it’s like to wake up feeling overwhelmed by the idea of tomorrow. I know the loneliness of feeling invisible even in a crowded room. I know the weight of dark, intrusive thoughts and the exhausting fight to find a way out. I’ve walked the path of intensive therapy for addiction and profound mental health struggles and come through it. This lived experience means that when I sit with you, I’m not just relying on textbooks or clinical training. I meet you with real understanding and absolutely no judgment. I get it, because I’ve lived it!

I have a deep appreciation and passion for working with adults and children who have experienced trauma. I have a diverse range of skills and experience, such as cross-cultural psychology, immigration, self-esteem and neurodiversity, e.g., autism and ADHD. I walk with my clients through the darkness of their experience, holding the space with compassion, helping them understand their experiences better, make sense of them, accept their whole existence, and fully love and embrace themselves. I believe healing is a process in which both the therapist and the clients contribute and grow together.
