If you are going through a tough time in your life, a lot of emotions are coming up right now, and it all feels a little overwhelming - my heart goes out to you. The hardest step is often reaching out for support and I am honoured you are considering working together. Having a dedicated space to be heard, explore our inner world and past experiences in a compassionate space can offer clarity and healing. My intention as a therapist is to create a space for you where the masks can drop, your authenticity can emerge and you feel supported in slowly reconnecting to the wisdom within.
I use an integrative psychotherapy approach drawing on various therapy types to best suit your needs. I am experienced in working with clients who have experienced childhood trauma, sexual abuse, narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression, attachment difficulties, relationship breakdowns and dissociation.
If you have any questions, or want to explore what working together may feel like - please feel free to reach out. There is no obligation to start therapy straight away. It's important that you feel comfortable in my presence first and your questions are answered to ensure you feel comfortable when beginning deep therapeutic work.

I specialise in childhood trauma, sexual abuse and impacts of relational difficulties on our day to day life. During initial sessions we will focus on building trust with your inner world. I believe slower is often faster when it comes to deep inner work, so we will together prioritise taking care of your emotional safety before deepening the therapeutic process.

I use a combination of parts work (IFS) and somatic psychotherapy (Somatic Experiencing and Sensorimotor) techniques for mind-body-soul healing. I am level 3 trained in Internal Family Systems and assist on official IFS trainings. In my practice I most frequently support those who experienced childhood trauma (emotional, sexual, physical abuse and abandonment) and difficult relational dynamics.
