I believe that feeling heard and understood can create space for greater self-awareness, healing and change.

I have a special interest in working with clients experiencing anxiety. This may show up as general anxiety, or anxiety related to a specific issue such as social situations or health concerns. I support people to feel less afraid of anxiety and to loosen its grip. My practice also focuses on:

• depression or low mood

• life transitions (e.g. finishing university, becoming a parent, migration or retirement)

• autism (therapy, not assessment) and

• trauma.

I work with adults of all ages and genders. I have a special interest in working with women in their 20s and 30s.

My approach is warm, non-judgmental and down-to-earth. Therapy is guided by your goals, and I always start by seeking to understand your individual needs and preferences about how to work with a therapist.

I aim to create a safe and compassionate space for you to explore experiences, thoughts and feelings. I draw on evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy and Motivational Interviewing.

Clients often share with me that they appreciate the practical tools and strategies they learn in sessions.
