Speaking about experiences that are personal, distressing, or hard to put into words can feel challenging. I offer a warm, respectful, and supportive therapeutic space where, together, we can explore whatever is troubling you at your own pace. My work is relational and client-centred, grounded in psychoanalytic and psychodynamic approaches, and informed by extensive life experience working with people from diverse backgrounds across many different occupational and life settings. I also have a strong interest in dreams, which can help deepen understanding of self and relationships, supporting meaningful change and growth.
I aim to provide a therapeutic space in which you feel listened to, seen, and free to be fully yourself. In this safe environment you will be helped to explore confusing thoughts and feelings, find better ways of managing problems, and develop greater self-understanding and wellbeing.
