Seeking help can be unsettling and change can take time. I work with clients once to three times weekly, providing a private, supportive space to talk, reflect and explore. My approach is psychoanalytic which enables the expression of unconscious factors behind our thought, behaviour and relationship patterns. I have a particular interest in disordered eating. Regular psychotherapy sessions facilitate a close therapeutic relationship fostering lasting self-understanding, agency and change.

Are you stuck in patterns you don't understand, held back by anxiety, difficult relationships, or a persistent feeling that something is "off"? These struggles are not flaws, but messages. My role is to help you listen to them.
As a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, I provide a confidential, non-judgmental space to explore the roots of your distress, which often lie in unconscious thoughts, memories, and repeated patterns. Together, we will work to uncover the ‘why’ behind your struggles—whether they involve trauma, identity, sexuality, or a longing for change—so you can move forward with greater freedom and clarity.

Are you feeling stressed, relationship difficulties, work pressures, sexuality issues to explore? Are there issues too difficult to discuss with others? Maybe you find yourself in the same situation, again & again. You may not feel understood and feel isolated.

I hold a Master’s degree in Transpersonal Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy and am accredited with the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and listed with the Irish Council for Psychotherapy (ICP). I work with adults in private practice, supporting clients with a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties.
People often come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or carrying experiences they’ve never fully had space to explore. You don’t need to have the right words or a clear goal, therapy can begin with what feels confusing, unfinished, or hard to carry on your own.

You might be feeling stuck, anxious, or weighed down by thoughts you rarely share. Therapy can be a space to slow down, make sense of what is underneath, and start to feel more like yourself again. I do not believe in fixing people; I believe in understanding, healing, and helping you reconnect with yourself.
I offer a warm, confidential space where you can speak freely, without judgment or pressure. My approach is relational and integrative, rooted in deep listening and honest reflection. I do not rush to label or fix; instead, we explore what is beneath the surface so genuine healing can begin.

Hello and welcome. Are you stressed, lost, anxious? Going through divorce? Life brings many experiences our way, some good and some bad. The emotional impact of these experiences can be frightening or confusing. Our family have a lot of influence on us, how we behave, how we talk, and how we communicate. Loss, grief, and anxiety are natural responses and processing our emotions is an essential part of living a healthy life.

I aim to help individuals who want to explore and fully experience their inner world. Whether you have struggles to face or wish to get to know yourself better, the psychoanalytic therapy room is a safe and confidential environment to bring your whole self into.
I specialise in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, a form of talk therapy focused on
exploring unconscious thoughts, patterns and feelings of the individual. It
is rooted in the idea that early experiences shape us and are reflected in
our present behaviours, feelings and relationships.

Whether you saw it it coming or didn’t, the feeling is the same: You’re devastated. You gasp at your vulnerability and wonder, “Why did this happen?”
Life dishes up so many hardships: heartbreak, illness, injury, death, abandonment. Though we may share similar experiences, every hurt is personal. No matter how many times well-meaning people say, “We understand,” they don’t.

Oftentimes due to circumstances that occurred in early life, we can abandon the self or learn to prioritise others. Therapy is a useful tool in bringing a person back to the self. It can help people to become empowered, to advocate for themselves and to free themselves from the grips of their limited beliefs. It can be an opportunity to learn to pause and rest in a society that values productivity. Therapy can be a useful space to create boundaries to protect your energy in everyday life, or when struggling with depression, anxiety or health issues.

There can be times in our lives when we feel lost, not know how to be in the world……when familiar patterns become obstacles and can result in feeling anxious, scared, or stuck. Therapy can be helpful in such a time.......a time of crisis, or a time of change. I provide a safe, compassionate space that allows you explore your current problems in a way that is right for you.
