Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or like you're constantly masking? You’re not alone and you don’t need to have it all figured out to begin.
I work with adults who are neurodivergent and navigating anxiety, burnout, identity questions, and the emotional weight of constant masking. You don’t need a formal diagnosis to work with me.
I’m a pre-accredited psychotherapist with lived experience of ADHD. My approach is neurodivergent-affirming, sensory-aware, and rooted in curiosity, not correction.

If you’re someone who looks like you’re coping on the outside, but inside feels overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, this might be for you.
Many of the people who reach out to me say some version of the same thing: “I’m holding everything together, but it’s getting harder. I don’t really know what I need, just that something isn’t working anymore.” You might be putting others first, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling unsure of what you think or feel.
On the outside, you may seem “fine,” but inside, you’re carrying more than you know how to manage.

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.

I use Trauma Focused therapy combined with Person Centered and Reality therapy.
I believe in the power of healing. I believe in the power of therapy. I believe it can be very difficult to reach out and ask for help. I believe I can help, because I believe in peoples ability to change their lives for the better. I believe personal circumstances can make change seem a daunting task, but little by little, with the right support, it can be life changing. Why do I believe all these things? Because I was in a place where I needed healing and with the right person/people, I changed my life.

I believe that the quality of your life is shaped by the relationship you have with yourself—and how that ripples into your relationships with others. When your inner world feels overwhelming, disconnected, or stuck, it’s not a personal failing. It’s often your nervous system doing its best to protect you.
Therapy here is about gently understanding those patterns, not fighting them.
You don’t need to have it all figured out to start.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for something to shift, therapy can offer a place to land, to understand, and to grow.

I work with adults who may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or caught in patterns they are finding difficult to change. Some clients come to therapy because of addiction, alcohol or substance use, gambling, pornography or sexual addiction. Others may be struggling with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, shame, bereavement, family conflict, work-related stress, or a sense of feeling disconnected from themselves. Often, people appear to be coping on the outside while feeling very different inside.

My ideal clients are people who are curious about themselves and want more than short-term symptom relief. They may feel that they understand their difficulties intellectually but still struggle to change familiar patterns. I work collaboratively to make sense of what is happening, identify what is getting in the way, and choose approaches that fit the individual rather than forcing therapy into a single model.
