About me
I specialise in helping individuals struggling with anxiety, stress or the aftermath of difficult experiences to heal and move forwards in life. If you feel like a therapeutic approach which offers more than simply talking would serve you, then I am glad you are here reading this. In addition to offering a safe and non-judgemental space for you to talk about your difficulties, I also offer tools which you can use to reflect and heal somatically and creatively. Whether you would like to work through a specific trauma, fear, phobia or stressor, or you would like to work slowly through many issues, I am here to help.
With a holistic approach to healing informed by art therapy, IFS (Internal Family Systems, or parts work) emotional freedom techniques (EFT/tapping), attachment theory, and mindfulness, I guide people to tap into their energy and intuition to heal. I will help you learn to cope and see your difficulties in a new light, leaving you eventually feeling empowered to thrive independently.
If my approach resonates with you, please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, for more information, or to have a free conversation about how we can work together.
We can work in-person or online, short-term or long-term: your therapy will be as individual as you are!
