You’re holding a lot — and from the outside, it might look like you’re coping. But inside, you feel overwhelmed, emotionally stretched, and caught in cycles of self-doubt, overthinking, or burnout. I work with women navigating ADHD, emotional intensity, and low self-trust — as well as mothers and carers of neurodivergent children who are carrying more than most people see. This isn’t about pushing through or adding more coping strategies. It's about safety, emotional safety. Your nervous system needs it. Our work together is collaborative, deeply personalised, and grounded in both clinical expertise and genuine compassion.
My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, combining psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy, and somatic work to support change at both a psychological and nervous system level. It’s about understanding yourself differently — and creating lasting shifts in how you think, feel, and respond.
Where emotional overwhelm meets lasting, high-level change. You might look like you’re coping, but inside feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in self-doubt. You don’t have to manage this alone. If you’re ready to feel different, I’m here to support you in taking that first step.

ADHD often impacts more than focus — it can affect mood, self-esteem, and thinking patterns. Many women experience overwhelm, anxiety, or negative self-beliefs after years of feeling misunderstood or "not enough." I offer integrative, trauma-informed therapy to help you regulate emotions, shift unhelpful thinking, and rebuild self-trust so you can feel calmer, clearer, and more in control.

I use an integrative, trauma-informed approach that blends psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy, and somatic techniques. This allows us to work with both mind and body—addressing thoughts, emotions, and nervous system responses. Together, we create personalised, deeper change that supports lasting emotional balance, self-trust, and resilience.
