I specialise in helping individuals navigate the complexities of relationships, family dynamics, and the impact of betrayal in relationships. I also support people working through substance use, behavioural addictions, and recovery. Dealing with a family rupture, toxic relationships or repeating patterns can feel incredibly isolating when you are trying to process it on your own. I provide a grounded and non judgemental space where you can talk openly at your own pace. I pay close attention to what's happening for you in the present moment, your emotions, thoughts, bodily sensations, and patterns of relating.
Grounded in Gestalt therapy, I work collaboratively by tuning into your unique present moment process. I pay close attention to what your body and emotions are experiencing in the room. I will stay curious and work within your world and help you reclaim your sense of self, and find a meaningful, authentic way forward.
Taking the decision to start therapy is brave, and you don't have to carry this alone. I am here to offer a safe, confidential space for you. If you are ready to take the next step, please feel free to get in touch

I use Gestalt therapy in my practice. In our sessions, we'll explore what's happening for you in the present moment and how past experiences may be shaping your patterns. Together, we can build awareness, deepen emotional understanding, and support you in creating more authentic, fullfilling relationships with others and yourself.
