If you are noticing feeling overwhelmed, struggling to stick to a routine, want to make changes but feel lost and not sure where to start, I am here for you. I understand the busy demands of day-to-day life and know how challenging it can be to find space for self-care. My sessions focus on working with you holistically, through a mind-body approach to find daily strategies to feel more emotionally resilient, grounded, and able to work on changing the areas of your life that are important to you. For more information, you can find useful self guided resources on my website under the 'resources' page
I am a CBT Psychotherapist, and qualified Yoga Teacher. I believe in order to make consistent changes in our lives, we need to work towards developing a feeling of safety and connection with mind and body. For the last 10 years I have worked in various therapeutic roles, working with anxiety, depression and specialising in trauma.
It's so challenging reaching out for support, and incredibly overwhelming finding the right therapist. I would like to make the process as easy as possible for you. I offer a free initial consultation where we can discuss how I can support you. There is no expectation to work with me after this, the most important thing is that you find the right therapist
