About me
Hi. I’m an accredited therapist, offering in-person counselling and psychotherapy to individuals and couples.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, constantly scanning for threat, or hollowed out by self-criticism? Perhaps you're held back by past hurt, finding it hard to trust. Any defences you’ve built to cope with these experiences offered safety and protection in the past, but now they might stand in the way of the wellness, relationships, and life you want to create.
How can you be free to live the life that you want, and to feel how you want to feel?
For individuals, this often means finding solid ground when life feels dysregulated. Exploring how past experiences, including trauma or insecure attachment, can shape and impact your present. Helping you make sense of who you are and what you need. For your to experience the welcome and stability needed to process the experiences and and trauma underlying your defences. Freeing you build the life you want, feeling understood and affirmed and validated as the person you hope to be.
For couples, difficulties often appear as repetitive arguments, growing emotional distance, or the raw pain of betrayal. Often related to difficulty with communication. It can feel like you’re speaking entirely different languages, or that you have entirely different ways of thinking and experiencing the world. As someone who is neurodivergent and with neurodiversity in my own family, I bring a unique, lived understanding to these dynamics. My aim is to help you both truly hear, understand, and reconnect, fostering a profound sense of closeness. Getting the relationship that you want.
I want your experience in therapy to acknowledge your background, identity, or challenges. For you to find your way as the person you are – honouring you identity, values, and intersections like LGBTQ+, neurodivergence, and cultural background. Find a welcoming and non-judgmental space. Where the mask is optional. My focus is on understanding the underlying issues that keep you feeling stuck, so you can move towards building the secure relationships and the life you genuinely want.
Taking that first step can feel daunting, but it's often the most powerful. You deserve a space where you can be truly heard, understood, and supported in finding your way forward.

Further information
Structure of Work:
The free initial call is where you can see if I feel 'right' for you, and for me to see if I offer the right therapy for you.
The first 4 to 6 sessions focus on discovering what you need, and what you want to get out of therapy. Connecting with your motivation to do that, and how to do that together.
Ongoing work may be short or long term, depending on what you want.
