About me
I am a Psychotherapist with extensive experience in anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and personality issues.
I am a Drama Psychotherapist/Dramatherapist and I tailor the therapy to the needs of the individual, meeting the person, where they are. Psychotherapy offers a deeper way of working. It’s especially helpful when parts of your life feel stuck, and you’re ready to create meaningful change.
An Arts Therapy/Dramatherapy approach engages the whole body and nervous system, grounded in the understanding that creativity is an innate healing force. Because we can’t always access this resource on our own, the therapist helps to facilitate that process. This approach relies less on spoken language and instead focuses on creative expression, which can illuminate the underlying roots of emotional or psychological difficulties.
