Life can feel messy at times, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Having a safe, confidential space where you can talk things through and feel heard can make all the difference. If you’re here, you might be going through a tough time. Life’s struggles are part of our story, and our past experiences play a role in what we’re facing today. You may be searching for relief from your worries, to make sense of your thoughts or to feel good enough. I offer warmth and compassion to help you feel at ease to explore your difficulties, recognise your strengths and support meaningful change.

I work with people who might know what they want or why something is difficult, yet in the moment your body reacts and control is lost. Maybe you are neurodivergent, highly sensitive, or shaped by earlier adversity. I can help you unstick, notice your patterns, and support you in becoming cool, calm, and collected. To trust your responses, so you can meet life with more choice, steadiness, and authenticity rather than old survival strategies. I’m easy going with a good sense of humour.

Welcome. With a background in both Psychology & Psychotherapy I combine this training with lived experience to offer you empathy & validation, as well as support for you to change and grow. I integrate psychological, psychodynamic, DBT, CBT, sleep & somatic approaches to tailor therapy to your needs. When we get things stabilised together, felt-safety established in your brain-body system, and more constructive coping strategies brought in, people who work with me tend to have increased self-awareness, self-esteem and self-care tools, as well as less self-criticism and improved psychological, physical & social health & wellbeing.

Do you sometimes feel like you’re living on the outside, different from the people around you? Have you spent a lot of time trying to fit in, working hard to get things ‘right’ or to do what you think you 'should' do, yet feel you're losing yourself and it's still not quite enough? You might notice familiar patterns in relationships, such as overthinking, overgiving, or doubting yourself and it's exhausting. Many people I work with long for spaces and relationships where they don’t have to work so hard. Where they can feel accepted for who they are, even if that is different. If this sounds like you, you're very welcome here.

You may appear capable and successful, yet your inner world feels harder to manage than others realise. Your mind moves quickly, but focus, emotional regulation, or sustained energy can feel difficult. You might wonder why your potential is not fully expressed, despite your intelligence and effort. You may also be questioning whether ADHD, autism, stress, racial trauma, workplace bullying or burnout plays a role. What you want now is understanding. You want to know how your mind works and how to work with it despite your experiences.

I work in a way that’s person-centred, integrative, inclusive and relational. I always place your needs and values at the centre of our therapeutic work, while embracing your freedom and autonomy. I take an affirmative approach in encouraging you to bring any and all parts of your unique self; I take care to not pathologise or criticise you. I work very relationally, and I believe therapy can only be effective if there’s a strong therapeutic relationship at the heart of it. I’m interested in exploring what goes on in the therapeutic process and how this may mirror dynamics you’re experiencing in your wider life and relationships.

Many of the people I work with are struggling with questions of faith, identity, and culture, often alongside a loss of meaning or a fractured relationship with belief, responsibility, and self.
I work with people who want to understand themselves properly, not just manage symptoms. Experiences such as religious trauma, diaspora identity, internalised racism, and racial trauma sit at the centre of my work.
My role is not to offer quick fixes. It is to help you think clearly about your life, your history, and the patterns you find yourself repeating, especially the ones you already recognise but cannot shift.

I believe that all behaviour makes sense in context and this ethos informs the way I work with clients. As a trauma informed integrative psychotherapist trained in person-centred and psychodynamic therapy, I work with people who experience the effects of childhood trauma, low self-worth, anxiety, estrangement, familial relationship issues, shame and attachment issues. I have also worked with many clients who live with suicidal ideation, depression, and grief and loss.

Perhaps you're feeling a little stuck or unsure about things at the moment. Perhaps life is a bit overwhelming. There may be a sense that something needs to be addressed but you can't quite articulate it. Perhaps you've considered therapy in the past; you're not sure what it's like or if it's really for you, but maybe you're feeling curious enough to find out?
I consider therapy to be a gift: something we can give ourselves: a space where you can talk about the things which are important to you in order to understand your situation and facilitate positive change.
