Starting therapy can seem daunting and scary at first. But it's the first step you have taken to embark on this journey. Feeling isolated and not able to make sense of the world around you? Questioning all that you have grown up with? Racing thoughts constantly clouding your mind? Feeling detached, anxious or upset? Not sure how to process what you are experiencing? All this seems pretty overwhelming but more common than you think. Through acceptance and kindness why not allow yourself to be able to make sense of all this through therapy. Let each session speak for itself and discover different parts of yourself.

You may be a parent or caregiver feeling worried about your child and wondering what has changed. Perhaps they're struggling with anxiety, overwhelming emotions, behavioural changes or difficulties at home or school, and you're unsure how best to help. I believe every child has a story, and every behaviour has meaning. Working alongside children, young people and their caregivers, I help families understand the needs beneath behaviour, strengthen relationships and build confidence, connection and hope.

You may be a high-masking autistic or ADHD woman. You may have spent years coping, and even outwardly succeeding, until your nervous system simply can’t keep up. Many of my clients are neurodivergent women, often late-diagnosed or self-diagnosed, navigating burnout, perimenopause, trauma, self-doubt, and deep exhaustion from masking. You may have tried therapy before without lasting change and feel stuck in the same patterns. You’re looking for specialist, neurodiversity-affirming therapy that helps you understand why you struggle and offers practical ways to move forward.

Many of my clients are students or researchers in academia or industry, but I've helped people from diverse backgrounds with various issues, often around self-esteem, OCD, anxiety and related problems, such as procrastination and perfectionism. I do not use any AI tools in my practice. If you are concerned or experience anxiety or conflict around the increasing use of genAI around you, I will do my best to listen, provide a safe space, and help you manage. Systemic problems can't be solved on an individual level, but mental health support and connectedness can help individuals live better meaningful lives in problematic systems.
