You may find yourself repeating patterns that feel difficult to understand or change, struggling with food, body image, relationships, self-esteem, grief, or a persistent sense of shame or self-criticism. Often these experiences are shaped by earlier relationships and ways of coping that once helped but may now feel limiting. My work is grounded in a relational, psychodynamic approach where we explore how past experiences may continue to shape how you feel about yourself and others today. By bringing greater awareness to these patterns, therapy can create space for understanding, self-compassion and change.
I work integratively and draw on different approaches where helpful. I have particular experience supporting individuals with eating disorders and body image difficulties and previously worked as a counselling service lead within an eating disorder service. We can explore both internal and behavioural aspects of difficulties with food and body image.
Alongside this, I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, shame, relationship difficulties and the impact of earlier experiences, including abusive or challenging patterns. I also support neurodivergent individuals and parents/carers navigating complex challenges with their children struggling with a variety of presenting issues.

I work psychodynamically and use CBT-informed approaches, including CBT-E for eating disorders. In sessions, we explore how past experiences and relationships shape current thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, while also working practically to reduce unhelpful patterns and build more supportive ways of coping.
