I’m a bilingual psychotherapist offering a space where you won’t be judged or made to feel shame, rebuild self-worth, and discover that being different doesn't make you unlovable. I support people navigating identity, culture, and family expectations. Our work isn’t about blaming anyone. A lot of my clients feel caught between cultures, their own sexuality with family expectation, unsure how to set boundaries without guilt/shame, and just want to feel understood without having to explain everything. My aim is to gently support and help you feel more grounded in who you are, with more self-worth and more self-compassion.
Clients often tell me they feel lighter after being truly seen and accepted — even when they’ve shared something they thought was “too much.” I create a space where every feeling is welcome — and when the way forward feels unclear, I help shine a light without taking away your choice.
If you are seeking to feel more self-worth and self-compassion, to set boundaries without guilt/shame, to begin believing that being different doesn’t make them unlovable — and that your emotions and needs are valid. Being different doesn’t make you unlovable — it makes you human. Let's start your journey here with me by making the 15-minutes consultation.

I know therapy can sometimes feel expensive or out of reach, and not everyone feels it's for them. That's why I offer concessionary fee slots—my way of giving back to the community and making support more accessible. If you think this could help, please feel free to reach out.

One foundation of my work is Person-Centred Therapy, which values empathy, genuine connection, and unconditional positive regard. In this space, you can feel heard without judgment, allowing you to explore your feelings and experiences at your own pace. I also work with an Attachment-Informed lens, recognising how our early relationships can shape the way we connect with others and ourselves.
