If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or aware that something in your life seems off kilter, therapy can offer a space to pause, reflect, and begin to understand what’s really going on for you.
Many of the people I work with are experiencing anxiety, stress, burn-out, or a sense of feeling lost or lacking direction—even if things may appear “fine” on the surface.
I have a particular interest in working with people who want to live more authentically—developing self-awareness, finding meaning and direction, and addressing old wounds that may still be shaping how they feel, relate, and move through life.

I specialise in maternal mental health and supporting mothers. Many of the mothers I work with feel overwhelmed, anxious, lonely, or unsure of who they are since becoming a parent. They’re not necessarily “depressed,” but they know something feels off. They want to understand themselves again, ease the pressure they’re under, and find language for an experience that has left them stretched, tender, and changed.

It is therefore extremely important to work on the source of our distress, to make the effort to examine it, to understand its cause and thus to find our own tools for dealing with it. Personal and professional development involves hard and deep work that allows us to understand our unique way of dealing with daily challenges. My commitment is to accompany you on this journey, respecting your beliefs, validating your choices and revealing your contradictions.
