About Me

I am a UK-based, Gestalt-trained psychotherapist working mainly online and offering walk-and-talk therapy in the Basildon and Brentwood areas of Essex. I am interested in how our experiences, relationships, family histories and cultural backgrounds shape who we become and how we relate to ourselves and others.

My work has a particular focus on trauma and transgenerational trauma, as well as navigating different cultures, identity and belonging. I am interested in the ways we adapt to difficult circumstances, the patterns we develop to survive, and how these patterns may continue to affect us long after the original experiences have passed.

I believe therapy can offer a space to explore these experiences with curiosity and compassion, deepen our understanding of ourselves, and discover new ways of relating to ourselves and the world around us.

My Approach

My approach is relational, embodied and grounded in Gestalt psychotherapy. I offer a thoughtful, supportive space where we can explore what is happening in your life, at a pace that feels right for you.

Rather than focusing only on what has happened in the past, we can also notice how past experiences show up in the present: in your relationships, emotions, bodily responses and ways of relating to yourself and others. Together, we can become curious about patterns that may once have helped you cope but no longer serve you.

I see therapy as a collaborative process, not about telling you who to be or what to do, but about developing greater awareness, understanding your needs and discovering new possibilities for living and relating.
