Are you finding yourself struggling with difficult emotions, anxiety, low mood, or low self-worth? Perhaps you often get caught in cycles of overthinking, feel stuck and unable to make changes, or are navigating a period of transition and re-evaluation. My role is to support you in finding a path toward understanding, self-compassion and meaningful change.
My approach is person-centred, informed by humanistic and relational therapies as well as neurobiology, attachment theory, mindfulness, Buddhist psychology, ACT, CFT, CBT. I support students and people of all ages navigating change or challenge including illness, mental health difficulties, trauma, relationship changes, workplace issues, retirement and loss.
I work in a trauma-informed way and aim to provide a service that is inclusive regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, race, culture, faith, neurotype or ability. I hope together we can build a safe, kindly and non-judgmental listening space so you can explore your experience, talk freely about concerns and find conditions for change.
