About me and my practice

If youre feeling anxious and stressed, unsatisfied in your relationships or career, would like support with specific issues such as self-esteem or self-confidence, or all of the above, there is support out there to help you start feeling better.

Your therapy sessions are a place where you can completely be yourself, where youre heard, understood, and supported without judgement. In our sessions well engage in honest conversations, go at your pace, work through challenges together, and set meaningful goals for your mental wellness journey. Through the relationship we create together, the transformative power of therapy can take place.

Therapy can help you:

Improve your relationships, both with yourself and with others
Find better ways of coping with anxiety, stress, and difficult emotions
Heal from past experiences that are impacting your current life
Develop a better understanding of your authentic self
Discover your needs and boundaries

As your therapist, I will bring extensive training and experience in working with different therapeutic modalities such as psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and solution focused therapy. However, to help you work towards positive change, our sessions are tailored to meet your specific needs and goals which can vary over time.

If you'd like to start a healing journey together just drop me an email and we can get a session booked in (all emails are replied within 24hrs).

Or, if you'd like to book a free 15 min introductory video call to ask any questions and get a feel for how we can work together, please visit the link below:

Therapy is brave step towards change! If we don't speak to each other I wish you all the best in your journey and sincerely hope you receive the compassionate support and care you deserve.

"You are not a problem to be solved. You are a vast, complex, and unique being to be understood and loved." Matt Licata
