Life is challenging and can feel like you’re on a hamster wheel of pressure, ‘have-tos’ and obligations. The more you do, the more the wheel spins, and the faster you descend into overwhelm, stress, anxiety, and burn-out. I can support you to overcome these challenges, as well as relational trauma and abuse, racial trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I offer a compassionate space for us to explore what you have experienced in life, how these experiences shaped you, and how you can make comfortable changes that support you to live a joyful, balanced, inspired, and fulfilling life.
I’m a trauma-informed Arts Psychotherapist. We'll combine talking with art to help you make sense of life, safely feel, and process emotions that are stored in your body as trauma memories. I believe that everyone is creative. You don’t need to have ‘artist skills’ or purchase expensive materials to work with me, paper and a few coloured pens is enough.
I know that reaching out for help can feel daunting, and there are so many types of support, which can be confusing. I work collaboratively, which means that decisions about what to focus on and what your goals are, are made together. I offer free consultations to answer your questions and discuss what’s most important to you.

Given the level of general anxiety you might feel when starting therapy, I spend time early on in our sessions making sure you feel 'grounded' by sharing self-regulation tools that involve art-making, breathing and sensation awareness exercises. Most clients quickly feel a sense of inner power and agency from learning how to regulate their emotions and respond to stress in a more balanced way.

I often combine Art therapy with somatic practices that help you safely feel and express energies in motion, i.e. emotions and sensations that are contained in your body. Getting comfortable with what your body is feeling helps you to listen to it, regulate and trust yourself, which is the key to your wellness and healing.
