About me
Many people seek therapy at some point in their lives. This may be to address a specific problem, work through something in their past, or help them live more in line with their values. People who come to me often carry something that has been affecting them for a long time, sometimes most of their lives. While they may have found ways to cope, they can still feel stuck in relationships, their bodies, or in quiet moments when the past feels closer than it should. Drawing on many years of clinical experience and a warm, genuine approach, I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space to explore your experiences.
In my practice, I draw on a range of evidence-based modalities, including Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I also draw on principles of the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), as well as narrative and systemic approaches.
Please note, I usually respond to enquiries within a day. If you have not heard back from me, please check your 'Junk' folder.
