My Approach

Rooted in Transactional Analysis, my practice is co-creative, relational, and gently challenging. I believe insight alone isn't enough; we need emotional safety, attuned connection, and actionable steps for real change.

I draw on:
Ego state work and life script analysis
Redecision and relational TA
Embodied and creative techniques
Organisational and leadership psychology
A trauma-informed, intersectional lens

Therapy is a collaborative process; we go at your pace, following the threads that matter most. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we cry. Always, we stay curious.

About Me

I am a Psychotherapist and Supervisor (PTSTA), UKCP registered, committed to supporting individuals, couples, and groups in developing resilience, self-awareness, and emotional well-being. With over eight years of clinical experience in private practice and placements, and over 16 years in organisational psychology, leadership training, coaching, and digital learning transformation, I offer a unique blend of therapeutic and professional expertise.

Using a relational and co-creative Transactional Analysis approach, I help clients address anxiety, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem. My experience working with global organisations to design accessible learning solutions and foster professional development allows me to tailor support to diverse cultural and social contexts.

I integrate evidence-based techniques with practical strategies to empower clients, fostering autonomy, sustainable change, and personal and professional growth.

Alongside clinical work, I supervise TA trainees and qualified TA practitioners (CTAs), supporting their clinical development within a Transactional Analysis framework.

Special Interests

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.

Cross-Cultural Identity & Belonging I work with clients navigating multiple cultural identities, migration, or life across borders. Therapy offers a space to process belonging, difference, and the complex experience of “home.”
Depression & Disconnection Depression often shows up as disconnection—from yourself, others, and meaning. Through a relational TA approach, we explore the roots of low mood and emotional numbness, helping you move toward reconnection and vitality.
Identity & Self-Esteem Many clients come to therapy unsure of who they are or struggling with low self-worth. Together, we unpack internalised beliefs, past roles, and shame-based narratives to help you reconnect with a more authentic, compassionate sense of self.
Family Dynamics & Relationships I work with couples and families navigating conflict, disconnection, and communication breakdowns. Using a relational Transactional Analysis lens, we look at the patterns and roles that keep getting repeated and build new ways of relating that feel more secure and honest.
Burnout & Work-Related Stress Drawing on my background in organisational psychology, I work with professionals facing overwhelm, imposter syndrome, and role fatigue. Therapy offers a space to reflect, recalibrate, and move forward with clarity.
