Things never have a way of working out in life as to how we thought it would. Life throws many obstacles in our path, which can be very challenging. These can cause us to question ourself, our lives and our beliefs. These can create anxiety or depression, feelings of not being able to cope. It can leave us feeling broke and feeling that there is no way forward. We loose someone we love or a relationship or job, which can lead us to grieving for what we have lost. Sometimes we just need to find the right direction for our life.

There are times in all our lives when we would benefit from some help and support. It can be difficult deciding who to see. With that in mind I offer all prospective clients an opportunity for us to meet face to face and discuss how I can help and for you to decide if I am the right person. I don’t charge for this and there is no assumption on my part that you will return, that would be your choice. I have extensive experience in many areas and am confident I can help you help yourself. Things can and do change for the better . . . there is light at the end of the tunnel. Individual sessions last 50mins and couples sessions 70mins.

Feeling trapped in a painful 'push-pull' cycle? One of you constantly seeks closeness, while the other needs space, leaving you both feeling lonely and misunderstood. These predictable patterns are often driven by our attachment styles, creating a dynamic that feels strangely familiar yet difficult to break. I help individuals and couples move beyond managing symptoms to understand and change this dance. Together, we can decode your pattern, heal its roots, and build a secure, loving connection. The goal is not to change who you are, but to help you relate to each other in a new way fostering security, intimacy, and mutual support

Trauma doesn't always look like crisis. Sometimes it looks like coping so well that no one, including you, notices what it's costing. I work with women and mothers who are exhausted from holding it together, and ready for things to actually shift. My clients often function well on the outside while carrying anger, anxiety, or exhaustion they can't fully explain. They've usually already done the work of understanding themselves - what they want now is real, lasting change, not more insight.

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.
