My Approach

I specialise in working with clients wh have experienced trauma or abuse. We'll explore how your past experiences may have shaped the way you think, feel and relate to yourself and others, helping you understand patterns that may once have protected you but no longer serve you. Alongside exploring the underlying causes of your difficulties, we'll develop practical tools and strategies to help you manage the emotional impact of trauma, strengthen your resilience and navigate life's challenges with greater confidence.

The therapeutic relationship is central to the way I work. I aim to create a space where you feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences, ask questions, challenge old beliefs and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others. Therapy moves at a pace that feels right for you, with your goals guiding our work together.

About Me

If you've experienced trauma or abuse, you may have spent years wondering why you think, feel or react the way you do. Perhaps you've been told you're "too sensitive", struggled to trust yourself, or found yourself repeating patterns in relationships that leave you feeling confused, exhausted or disconnected from who you are.

Working with survivors of trauma and abuse is at the heart of my practice. I have a particular interest in supporting people who have experienced narcissistic and emotional abuse, domestic violence, childhood abuse and neglect and codependency. What draws me to this work is a belief that our responses to trauma are not signs that something is wrong with us; they are often understandable adaptations to what we have lived through.

As an integrative psychotherapist, I believe healing begins with making sense of those adaptations rather than judging them. My role is to help you understand the lasting impact of your experiences, recognise the strengths that have helped you survive, and support you in building a life that is no longer shaped by the past.
