Life is full of ups and downs, and it's completely normal to feel overwhelmed or unsure about how to cope, at times. Taking the step to seek help can indeed feel daunting, but in my practice, I aim to make that process as comfortable and supportive as possible. When you step into my therapy space, you'll find a welcoming atmosphere where you're accepted just as you are. Whether you're grappling with past traumas, current stressors, or uncertainty about the future, I provide a warm and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to open up and explore whatever is on your mind.

I use an integrated approach with Humanistic theory providing the foundation, and utilizing elements of Psycho-dynamic psychotherapy, CBT, Gestalt, EFT and Solution-focused therapy.
Therapy must feel safe before it can be productive. To this end, I initially attempt to provide a sense of ease in counseling sessions. From there, I generally like to see if the client and myself can collaboratively identify what might be some goals. These goals can be anything from wishing to feel less anxious, sad, irritable, troubled, to addressing relationship difficulties at home or at work, to trying to better understand a feeling of being unfulfilled, or to think or feel differently about the past. In many cases, it is plenty to just to have a safe place to discuss anything at all in a confidential, non-judgemental setting.

With over 14 years of experience, I have helped many people on their unique healing journey. Sometimes we need a place to explore the difficulties that arise in life; whether they are behaviours, feelings, or emotions. At times you need to be listened to confidentially and without judgement. Our mental health can have such a significant impact on the quality of our lives. These challenges come in many forms, including trauma, phobias, bereavement, anxiety, and behavioural issues. Often, it is hard to tell exactly what is wrong, only a sense that things are not right. The first brave step to take is to share that difficulty.

My clients are often high-functioning professionals whose lives look successful on the outside but feel disconnected in their intimate relationships. They may struggle with low desire, performance anxiety, or difficulty expressing their needs and boundaries. Some feel lonely despite being partnered, or held back by shame, perfectionism, or cultural messages about sex. They want to understand themselves more deeply, feel more confident in intimacy, and build relationships that feel emotionally and physically fulfilling.

My ideal clients are people who appear to be coping on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, burnt out, disconnected or stuck internally. They may come to therapy because of stress, ADHD or neurodivergence, low confidence, grief, relationship strain, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties or repeating patterns they want to understand. I help by offering a calm, professional space to make sense of what is happening, identify what keeps them stuck, and build practical, realistic steps forward.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, especially if you’re not sure where to begin. You may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or simply longing for a deeper understanding of yourself. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to face it alone.

I work as a counselling psychologist and a couples therapist. It is my privilege to accompany my clients in making a positive impact on their lives and moving towards their goals. I offer a non-judgmental space where they can explore their inner landscape and reconnect with their feelings, needs, resources, helping them to break old patterns and to create the life they really want.
I am enthusiastic about embodied approaches as I see the body as a powerful tool for self-awareness, self-expression and a domain of change.
I help people experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, and symptoms of trauma among others.

I work with young people, individual adults and couples. At our initial consultation, I have two objectives: to assess whether we can work together as therapist and client, and also to assess what is the appropriate therapy to offer you. Therapy is work. I offer a carefully-bounded confidential space in which to speak of anxiety, depression, hopes and dreams. My principal mode of working is a talking therapy but where appropriate I may recommend coping strategies (e.g. for panic attacks) and psycho-education (e.g. books or podcasts). In return I expect you to attend weekly, speak freely, and pay promptly.

In a few words, I identify as autistic, non-binary, queer, a video game fanatic, and occasionally an alternative drag/cabaret performer. My approach in counselling is guided by the idea that the main healing factor in any therapeutic process is the attunement between the counsellor and the client. I strive to be honest and authentic in my practice, while maintaining healthy boundaries, and I understand that the best counsellor for you is the one that is on the same wavelength as you, the one that just intuitively feels right.

Welcome to Your Therapeutic Journey
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, and for many, it may bring a sense of vulnerability or uncertainty. It's completely normal to feel this way, and I want you to know that you're not alone. It takes courage to seek support, and that courage is the foundation of your healing journey.
My core belief is that each individual has the potential to lead a more fulfilled life. Too often, we get caught in cycles of guilt, shame, and self-criticism that prevent us from investing in ourselves, our well-being, and our happiness. But therapy is not just a tool for healing – it’s a power

I am an integrative therapist who works collaboratively, bringing curiosity and openness to help people identify their needs and goals in a safe and supportive environment. I prioritize the quality of the therapeutic relationship, seeing it as essential to our shared experience. My experience includes working with adults and young adults facing grief, panic attacks, suicidal ideation, self-harm, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, shame, bereavement, and loss. I value cultural diversity and I am aware of the unique ways it may shape the therapeutic process and our work together.
