I’m a trauma-informed drama therapist working with couples, adults, and adolescents navigating relationship conflicts, anxiety, grief, chronic health conditions (including scoliosis and autoimmune conditions), as well as life transitions such as relocating abroad, becoming a parent, or changing careers. Together, we uncover the stories shaping your experiences, trace their roots, and gently reshape them — or create new ones — so you can face challenges with greater strength, insight, and flexibility. My clients recognise that lasting change emerges through reflection, imagination, and embodied integration.
Drama therapy is a creative, somatic approach that integrates with other therapeutic frameworks. My work focuses on bodily experience and draws on modern neuroscience to understand the impacts of trauma and adverse experiences, alongside psychodynamic developmental perspectives—exploring how the past impacts the present and how to transform these patterns.
I work in embodied, mindful and symbolic ways to connect with clients and support their therapeutic journey. Through creative expression, we explore the past and nurture possible futures, creating insight and practise behaviours which can break unhelpful cycles. If this sounds interesting, reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.

I work with clients stepping into a new version of themselves (by choice or by circumstance). We begin by addressing feelings, experiences and relationship struggles which have brought you to therapy. Then we will use creative and embodied approaches to explore different perspectives and stories, to gain insight and develop strategies to transform & improve your relationship to these challenges.

Somatic awareness is weaved throughout sessions to establish a foundation for work on therapeutic material. We also make use of the expressive, creative arts, in order to make sense of, transform, challenge and establish new patterns and personal narratives. Through strengthening self-awareness and self-expression, clients gain confidence within their daily lives and inter-personal relationships.
