Welcome. If you’re stressed, depressed, facing a life change or loss, or need to make a major decision, it can be helpful to talk to someone outside your family and friendship circle. Sometimes acknowledging you need help can be the hardest first step. You’re looking for a therapist who feels right for you and can help see things in a new light. We may explore your history, and find ways to understand yourself or to cope. You might be young or older - it's never too late to discover yourself and make the changes in your life that you want. We'll work collaboratively, at your own pace.
I work integratively, giving me flexibility to tailor the work for you. This means I use different types of questions and techniques, based on different theories including Cognitive Behavioural techniques, person-centred and attachment therapy, and I incorporate play therapy if appropriate.
I work with clients facing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, life transitions and loss. Many clients, particularly those who are neurodiverse, find having the space to be themselves highly beneficial. I am a transgender ally with lived experience. Call me to see if I'm the right therapist for you.
