About me
As a mindfulness-based relational psychotherapist, I support my clients to meet life's challenges and appreciate its gifts. In therapy, you are supported to turn towards what hurts in order to reconnect with a sense of wellness and freedom within yourself. I offer a dynamic therapeutic relationship where we dive into this process together. As a therapist, I value the simple act of sitting down with my clients each week, connecting with them however they are in that moment. Over time, I get to witness my clients develop a truer, kinder relationship with themselves. It's incredibly rewarding to journey with someone as this inner change is reflected out into their life.
What I help with:
The clients I work with come to therapy for a variety of reasons. They may be struggling with depression, anxiety or low self-esteem. Many are learning about their neurodivergence and discovering how they can best support themselves and to grow. Others may feel caught in repetitive, unhelpful patterns or face difficulties in important relationships. Some are navigating grief after a significant loss, . Many are adapting to major life transitions, exploring identity questions and neurodivergence, or processing trauma and traumatic events.
Who I work with:
I work with individuals of all ages, from a wide variety of lives and backgrounds. My practice affirms diversity, including neurodivergence, gender, sexuality and relationship styles. I have particular experience working with ADHD clients and individuals from the LGBTQA+ community.
If you're interested in starting therapy, I invite you to book a free consultation by emailing me today.

I also have a BPS recognised MSc in Psychology and an AFT recognised Foundation Level qualification in Systemic Family Practice.
