I work mainly with university students and young adults, supporting people with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, depression, burnout, and feeling overwhelmed or stuck in life. Alongside private practice, I also work at a London university as a Mental Health Mentor.I have completed training with the NAD (National Autism Society) to support those who have received a diagnosis, those who are waiting on one, those diagnosed later in life, or simply suspect they may have neurodivergent traits.
I’d describe my style as warm, relatable, and down-to-earth while still offering a safe and professional space. You’re welcome to show up exactly as you are ; whether that means crying, laughing, sitting in silence, bringing snacks, or talking through the chaos of your week before we unpack things together.
I also bring lived experience into the therapy room. Having experienced anxiety and depression myself, I understand how isolating and exhausting it can feel when your mind is constantly overthinking or working against you. You don’t need to pretend to have it all together here.
