On paper, your life works but something still feels off. Maybe you’re doing all the right things, but you’ve lost the spark. Perhaps you notice the same patterns repeating and you are ready to break free of them. Our sessions together can be a place to figure things out, to untangle the thoughts, emotions, and behaviours that have left you feeling lost, disconnected or uncertain. I offer a warm, calm and compassionate space to help you understand yourself more deeply, reconnect with what matters, and create lasting change from the inside and out.
I offer a wide range of therapies such as IFS, CBT, DBT, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Compassion-Focussed Therapy,. I am also trained to provide systemic/narrative therapies with a focus on strengths and resources rather than problems and symptoms. Where necessary, I draw on integrative approaches to tailor the sessions to your needs.
If any of this resonates with you, you're very welcome to reach out to see if we would be a good fit. I would love to meet you where you are. Whether you're ready to begin or just curious about what therapy might be like, I am here to talk things through and help you take the next step, at your own pace.

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I draw from third-wave approaches such as DBT, CFT and ACT. In our work, we also draw on your 'strenghts-story' using narrative therapy, to help us understand what you bring to your healing journey. I will encourage you to sit with difficult feelings, to face them with bravery and strength, as these are essential building blocks for overcoming
