I work relationally, which means that the relationship we build together is central to the therapy.
My approach is thoughtful and grounded in curiosity about your story so far and the meaning you make from it.
Together we will explore your experiences, the ways you have learned to cope, and what you want to carry forward into the next chapter of your life.
The work can be challenging, but it is also empowering and deeply human. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Every person arrives with a different story, different strengths and different hopes for the future. Rather than fitting you into a particular model, I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches, allowing our work to develop around who you are and what you need.

Sometimes we know exactly why we're struggling. Sometimes we don't.
You may be feeling overwhelmed by grief, anxiety or depression. You may notice yourself repeating the same patterns in relationships or feeling disconnected from the person you once were. Or perhaps you've spent so long coping that you're no longer sure what life would feel like without simply getting through each day.
Therapy offers a place to slow down, make sense of your experience and begin moving towards something different.
I work with adults who are navigating grief, trauma and significant life changes, offering a therapeutic relationship that is compassionate, thoughtful and gently challenging. Together we explore your story, understand the ways you've learned to survive, and create space for lasting change.
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.
