I believe in working holistically, considering all aspects of who you are and how you experience the world and adapting our work to suit your unique needs.

Like many, I’ve faced my own struggles. I know what it’s like to feel lost, looking for answers and support in a space that doesn’t always feel right. Some of my experiences with therapy were deeply healing, while others left me empty; either because the therapist was too directive, taking conversations in their own direction or agenda, or too laid-back, giving me no feedback to help me move forward.

I wanted something different. I realised what I was seeking was a more collaborative space, where you and I work together. Therapy, for me, is about balance. It’s about providing you with tools, analysis, feedback, and guidance, but also making sure your voice is at the centre of the process. I’m not here to dominate the session or be a blank slate. Instead, I’m here to connect with you, human to human, and create a space where you feel truly supported and heard on your path towards healing.

Having tried different types of therapy myself (like gestalt, person-centred, psychodynamic, CBT, and more) I understand first-hand how important it is to find the right approach. My own journey inspired me to get training in these methods, so that I could combine my lived experience with professional expertise and offer something uniquely personalised to each person I work with. Along the way, I also volunteered with organisations which deepened my commitment to helping others.

I'm a therapist who not only listens but understands, where your needs come first and where you feel empowered to grow. Together, we can create the change you’re seeking.

For me, relaxation is all about finding simple moments of calm.

My cat is one of my greatest sources of comfort. You might even spot her in the background sometimes, but don’t worry, she respects the confidentiality of our sessions! Her presence helps me slow down and unwind.

I also love being in nature, walking by the sea, listening to the waves. Natural sounds bring me a deep sense of peace. Another favourite way to unwind is playing some of my favourite music on the keyboard, it’s a creative outlet that always leaves me feeling relaxed and grounded.
