About me

Trained as an integrative therapist, I bring together a variety of approaches, including evidence-based modalities, in order to create a unique therapy that resonates most with what is important to you at this time in your life.

I aim to offer a compassionate space for self-discovery, where we together explore and address your current challenges, so that you can live a more fulfilling and meaningful life that is true to you and your values. I have significant experience of working with a wide range of difficulties and with people from different backgrounds and cultures. 

I specialise in trauma and trauma-informed therapy (including EMDR, TF-CBT, TF-CFT, NET), and I have a particular interest in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and mindfulness-based approaches. I am also an accredited CBT therapist with 10+ years of working as a therapist. In addition to private practice, I also work as a Senior Therapist at the Grenfell Health and Wellbeing Service.

If you would like to know more about how I can help you, please get in touch.
