Many of my clients are professionals balancing demanding careers with personal lives, who feel stressed, anxious, low in mood or overwhelmed. On the outside they may appear successful, yet inside they feel stuck, disconnected, or unable to cope. Some struggle with poor sleep, self-doubt, or relationship tensions, including repeating attachment patterns that leave them feeling unseen or unfulfilled. Others come at times of transition, loss, or change. What they want most is to make sense of what is happening, ease distress, and feel more resilient and connected, both with themselves and with those who matter most.
I specialise in supporting people under pressure by working collaboratively to reduce stress, lift low mood, and ease anxiety. Drawing on CBT, psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches, I tailor therapy to each person, helping with immediate challenges while exploring deeper patterns in how they relate to themselves and others.
Beginning therapy can feel daunting, but it may also be the first step towards real change. My approach is warm and supportive, offering space to feel heard and understood. Together we can work towards easing distress, reshaping unhelpful patterns, and building stronger connections with yourself and those around you.
