The stress of modern life can lead us to experience anxiety, depression and many other symptoms. Whilst bereavement, change and loss are all natural processes, they can also be painful and destabilizing which can create feelings of anger, helplessness and vulnerability. Challenges in the present can also unearth experiences from our past which we might not have had the opportunity to fully understand and process. These feelings can seriously impact on our lives including relationships, physical health and work such that it can sometimes feel we are out of control.

Our world has changed beyond recognition in the past few months and for many people it can feel very overwhelming. Fear, panic, anxiety and stress are all too common in the clients I am meeting on a day to day basis. I hear how isolating it is for people at the moment. Relationship and connection are vital now, more than ever. Talking with a trained professional can help make sense of what you are feeling. Through this therapeutic relationship, you can find connection, healing and the space to speak about the difficult challenges you are going through.

Deciding to come for counselling can often be a difficult and drawn-out process. It is often also a very rewarding and enriching experience leading to changes in one’s life that reduce distress and increase one’s ability to cope with difficulties and challenges. By it's nature the process involves engaging with uncomfortable aspects of oneself and our relationships that are challenging. The goal of the process is to increase self-knowledge, self-acceptance and self-compassion to enhance our capacity to relate to ourselves and others in healthier and more fulfilling ways.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward? You may be managing anxious thoughts, low mood, stress, self-doubt, perfectionism, or the impact of past experiences that still feel present. These difficulties can affect your relationships, focus, confidence, and sense of self. You might feel like you are never quite “enough.” Therapy can help bring clarity, direction, and relief. With over 10 years of clinical experience, I support clients to better understand their emotions, shift long-standing patterns, and reconnect with what matters most.

I’m an EMDR-trained psychotherapist working with trauma, addiction, and the patterns that quietly organise a life. Before psychotherapy, I worked in the international art world — a way of seeing I still carry: attention to what is held in the body, what repeats, what resists language. I don’t see people as problems to fix, but as nervous systems shaped by experience. Therapy becomes a steady, boundaried space where what has been carried alone can be met, felt, and slowly reworked — until something more liveable, and more your own, begins to take shape.

I work with adults and young adults who feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or burnout, many of whom are neurodivergent ( including ADHD, autism, and AuDHD), as well as neurotypical clients navigating anxiety, identity, or life transitions. My approach is neurodivergent- affirming and collaborative. I don't see your brain as something to "fix". Instead, I focus on understanding how your nervous system works, reducing shame, creating supports that fit you. Masking, sensory overwhelm, executive functioning challenges, and burnout are taken seriously here. Sessions are flexible and paced to your needs, show up exactly as you are.
