I will help you find better ways to deal with situations in which you struggle, with a focus on your thinking style, and the actions you take. I aim to help you develop a practical psychological tool kit, centred around your individual needs, values & personality. As such, I’m flexible in my approach to fit in with your needs.

You or your child may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, caught in cycles of worry and overthinking, or struggling with relationships that leave you feeling hurt, disconnected, or not quite yourself. Sometimes difficult experiences can continue to affect confidence, emotions, and the way we relate to others long after they have passed. You may find yourself putting others first, doubting yourself, avoiding situations that feel difficult, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. I work with adults, children, and young people who want to feel more secure, understood, and able to move forward with greater confidence.

Are you feeling stuck in a painful cycle with food, your body, your health, or your emotional wellbeing? You may find yourself eating in secret, feeling out of control, or caught between wanting change and struggling to sustain it. You might also be adjusting after illness, surgery, or weight loss treatment, feeling stuck in recurring relationship patterns, or struggling to cope with life’s challenges. I specialise in helping adults understand the patterns that keep these difficulties going, including cycles of restriction and overeating, persistent self-criticism, relationship difficulties, or feeling disconnected from yourself.

I’ve been a client twice, the first time for over 2 years. So I understand how hard it is to be vulnerable and open up to someone. I also know that therapy can make a big positive difference in our mental health and relationships, by helping us discover who we truly are, work through tough feelings from the past and present, and be ourselves, unapologetically.
I’m familiar with feelings like sadness, guilt, shame, anger, and anxiety; these are part of being human. Therapy helps us recognise these feelings, name them, and learn ways to manage them. I offer counselling in English, French, or Arabic.

You know something isn't right, but you can't quite understand why you can't move forward on your own. You might be feeling anxious, exhausted, or stuck in patterns you don't fully understand, or in a life that doesn't feel quite like yours anymore. I help people heal from trauma and change unhelpful patterns and beliefs so you can feel calmer and more confident, reach your goals, improve your relationships and live a more fulfilling life. I will support you to understand why you feel the way you do and to find a way forward, with a new level of confidence and purpose.

You may look like you’re coping well on the outside, but inside feel anxious, exhausted or close to burnout.
Many of the people I work with are high-functioning professionals who carry a lot of responsibility, struggle to switch off, and feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, pressure or emotional overload.
You might be dealing with anxiety, stress, sleep problems or the lingering impact of past experiences, and want things to feel calmer, clearer and more sustainable again.

I offer gentle therapy and coaching for sensitive adults who have lost themselves through difficult life events, prolonged stress, or years of people-pleasing. When you’ve learned to adapt, stay quiet, or put your own needs aside to feel safe or fit in, you may feel overwhelmed, stuck in repeating patterns, or disconnected from your true self and your deeper needs. Together we'll work at the pace of your nervous system, helping you heal old wounds and restore inner balance by reconnecting with your inner wisdom and reclaiming your authentic self. You don’t need fixing, just a supportive space where you can remember who you are.
