My Approach

Therapy with me is a collaborative, relational process, which means we create it together. My focus is on building a space where you can feel safe enough to be curious about the parts of yourself that may feel lost, confused, hurt, defended, ashamed, or stuck.

You don’t need a diagnosis or a fixed goal to begin therapy. We can start where you are and move at your pace.

I especially welcome clients who’ve felt misunderstood or marginalised in other systems, whether through misdiagnosis, institutional harm, or being labelled rather than understood.

My work is informed by both my training and my own lived experiences, and I aim to hold space that is inclusive, trauma-aware, and neurodiversity-affirming. might be coming to therapy feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Or perhaps something specific has happened, like a loss, a rupture, or a life change that’s left you unsure how to move forward.

Some of the themes I work with include:
• Addiction and recovery (alcohol, drugs, food, sex, or other compulsions)
• Relational trauma and attachment wounding
• Low self-worth, shame, or inner criticism
• Emotional intensity or feeling “too much”
• Anxiety, dissociation, or feeling disconnected
• Difficulty trusting or feeling safe in relationships
• Neurodivergence (late-diagnosed autism, ADHD, sensory sensitivity, masking, burnout)
• Identity exploration, gender fluidity, or LGBTQ+ experiences
• Grief, loss, or life transitions
