I specialise in remote EMDR and CBT for overcoming a range of issues including past trauma and current anxiety related symptoms.
Many of the people I work with have a good understanding of themselves, but find that insight alone hasn’t been enough to create change. They may recognise patterns in anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism or relationships, but still find themselves reacting in ways they would like to change.
I work with adults who want to understand what is keeping them stuck and make meaningful changes. This may involve EMDR, CBT or ACT-informed approaches, depending on what you want to work on.

I work with people in high-pressure roles who are used to holding things together for everyone else - at work, at home, in their business.
On the outside you may look ‘fine’ but inside it might feel very different. Perhaps the stress doesn’t ever switch off, decisions keep circling, and there maybe a quiet sense you’ve lost touch with yourself.

The main concerns I can help with is Trauma, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, Self Identity, Emotional Regulation and Relationships
You can get used to almost anything. That is part of the problem. How alone it feels. How long it has been carried without anyone really seeing it. How tiring it is to keep performing fine while something underneath quietly does not feel fine at all.
Some things are hard to say out loud. That you are not as okay as you look. That you resent people you love. That part of you checked out a long time ago and has been performing the rest.
Most people do not come to therapy because something dramatic happened. They come because they are tired of carrying it alone. That is reason enough. We can start there.
