We live in a world that can be complex to navigate, personally and socially. It places pressure on identity and relationships. Feelings such as anxiety, anger, depression or disconnection are human responses to difficult experiences. Together we can explore your story, understand what has shaped your life and what makes you uniquely you. Therapy offers space to make sense of experience, build skills, and let go of what no longer serves you. I work at your pace, offering a supportive, non-judgemental environment. I focus on GSRD, including queer, kink/BDSM and non-monogamy, as well as neurodivergent clients, couples and polycules.
The therapy I offer is typically longer-term, often lasting from six months to three years or more. With individuals, I usually work weekly, and with therapeutic systems such as couples, throuples or polycules, I work on a fortnightly basis.
A meaningful therapeutic relationship has the potential to enhance all other relationships in life. At times this journey may feel difficult when revisiting vulnerable places, but I believe therapy can help you feel better, even if it feels worse at first. I offer a warm, compassionate space and welcome you to reach out.

I work from a Transactional Analysis framework, which guides my practice. I believe people are OK at their core. The therapeutic relationship offers a supportive, reflective space to explore your experiences, make sense of patterns, and notice how old decisions may no longer serve you, creating space for ways of living more aligned with who you are now.
