I support adults living with grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout and stress-related difficulties. As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, I work with adults affected by childhood adversity, emotional regulation difficulties, low self-esteem, life transitions and bereavement. I offer a grounded, compassionate space to explore what you are carrying and what feels overwhelming or hard to put into words. Therapy does not require you to be in crisis. It can be a space to slow down, make sense of your experience, and move at a pace that feels right for you.
My approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. I draw on person-centred, psychodynamic, mindfulness-based and somatic approaches. Together, we explore your present experiences and how past events may be influencing them, helping you develop greater self-understanding and supporting emotional healing.
If you are considering therapy, you do not need to have all the answers. We can begin wherever you are and explore what matters most to you.
