Your reasons for seeking therapy are as individual as you are. Whatever you are facing, I'll meet you with compassion, sensitivity and safety so you no longer have to carry it alone. The therapeutic relationship has a different quality from other relationships in your life: it is deliberately structured to support you. Within its professional boundaries, we create a real relationship that is uniquely focused on exploring your experience with care, curiosity and understanding.
I believe we are shaped by our relationships and wounded in them too. Some wounds run quietly in the background, shaping how we see ourselves and move in the world. Relationships can also help us heal. With time and trust therapy can become an experimental space to find new ways of relating to yourself, others and the world with authenticity and vitality.
I welcome inquiries about my availability over email. I offer a (free) ten minute call if you would like to get an initial feel of whether we are a good fit. The next step is an initial assessment session online (paid) giving us time and space to explore what you are seeking from therapy and if my skills and approach match your needs.

I am experienced in working therapeutically with Autistic/ ADHD individuals, and often also work with mothers and carers. I have personal and professional familiarity with cross-cultural experience, and enjoy working with individuals in intercultural relationships and non-native English speakers. I work well with those who feel they don't belong or feel deeply different or lacking in some way.

My work is shaped by my advanced training in Transactional Analysis (TA) psychotherapy. This informs how I work with you to make sense of your story—how you experience yourself internally, in relationships, and in the deeper layers of your experience. I also hold in mind the wider contexts that shape us - the social and cultural worlds we're part of.
