Therapy is a place to slow down and give some attention to what can be difficult to notice when you're busy coping. You don't need to arrive with a clear explanation of what's wrong or know exactly where the work will lead. We can start with whatever feels most important to you and see what emerges as we talk.
I listen carefully to what you bring, including things that can be easy to move past. Sometimes something you've said earlier becomes relevant to something happening now; sometimes a feeling or reaction opens up a new way of looking at a situation. These connections can help us understand your experience in a way that feels more meaningful and personal.
The work isn't about having the right answers or trying to change everything at once. It is about having enough space to think, reflect and become more aware of what is happening for you, so that over time you can feel less caught up in difficulties that have been hard to shift.
You may appear to cope on the outside, but inside feel stuck, disconnected, or quietly overwhelmed. You might find yourself overthinking, unsure what’s really wrong, or exhausted by trying to keep everything going.
I offer a calm, thoughtful space where there is time to slow down and explore what is happening, without needing to have all the answers from the start.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked in creative and cultural roles in the UK and abroad. Those experiences deepened my interest in how we manage change, pressure, and identity, and how easy it is to lose our footing along the way. I bring this understanding into my work, supporting people through life’s turning points, whether clear-cut or more difficult to define.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
