My Approach

My Approach

My approach is integrative, relational, embodied and trauma-informed, with a foundation in Psychosynthesis. At the heart of my work is the relationship we build together — one that I hope feels respectful, collaborative and safe enough for meaningful exploration.

Psychosynthesis offers a compassionate and non-pathologising way of understanding emotional difficulties as meaningful responses to life experience. It also supports the exploration of inner parts, values, intuition, inner resources and the psychospiritual dimension of human experience — including questions of meaning, purpose, aliveness and becoming more fully yourself.

A trauma-informed approach
Working in a trauma-informed way means we do not need to rush, force anything, or go somewhere before you feel ready. Together, we focus on creating enough inner and relational safety so that you can begin to meet difficult feelings, memories or patterns without becoming overwhelmed. This may include supporting nervous system regulation, building internal resources, and finding ways to feel more grounded, present and connected to yourself.

Embodied and somatic work
Alongside talking therapy, we may bring gentle attention to the body, nervous system and physical sensations. The body can hold emotions, memories, survival patterns and forms of knowing that are not always accessible through thinking alone. We may explore this through sensation, breath, posture, movement, sound, imagery, mindfulness, grounding, orienting, supportive self-touch or other gentle somatic practices. The aim is not to force anything, but to help you listen to your body with more curiosity, choice and compassion.

Creative exploration
At times, working creatively may help us approach an issue from a different angle, especially when something feels stuck, hard to name, or difficult to shift through talking alone. This might involve guided imagery, drawing, objects, small figures, object constellations or other gentle ways of exploring your experience.

Together, we can discover what helps bring more clarity, movement and understanding. I will always offer these approaches with care and sensitivity, and with respect for your preferences, pace and readiness.

Working with inner parts
Most of us do not feel completely unified inside. We may have one part that wants one thing, while another part wants something else, creating inner conflict or turmoil.

Becoming curious about these different parts can be a powerful way of understanding yourself and shifting patterns that keep you stuck. This might include exploring a part that feels anxious, a part that wants to please others, a part that protects you by shutting down, or a part that carries shame or hurt.

Rather than judging or trying to get rid of these parts, we can begin to understand what they are trying to protect, what they need, and how you might relate to them with more compassion and acceptance.

Context and identity
I believe we are shaped by the personal, family, cultural and intergenerational worlds we come from. In our work, we can gently explore how these influences live within you, while making space for your own voice, choices and sense of self.

My style
My style is flexible and responsive. Some clients benefit from more guidance and structure, while others need more space for self-exploration. Often, a mixture of both is most helpful, and we can find together what feels supportive for you.

About Me

I am a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor with a background in Psychosynthesis, and somatic and trauma-informed approaches to therapy. I am passionate about creating a safe container for you to get in touch with your emotions, beliefs, different parts, and values and your intuitive wisdom and knowledge.

I have experience supporting individual adults, as well as teenagers and childen in private practice, low-cost counselling services and in a charity. Many of the people I have worked with experienced a sense of being out of touch with their emotions and body, feeling stuck or disoriented in life, having had past wounds or trauma that still impacts their present-day lives, or feeling dysregulated and lonely, not knowing where to turn to for support. Many of my clients have developed coping patterns of people-pleasing, constant busyness, perfectionism and pushing through, sometimes combined with addictive or compulsive patterns.

As an immigrant in a cross-cultural relationship and a sensitive, creative person, I have worked with many clients from mixed cultural backgrounds or in cross-cultural relationships and have a culturally sensistive approach. I have also experience working with high achievers, people in the creative industries and sensitive people and find that the thread of having learnt great skills at adapting at the expense of feeeling themselves, inclduding limits boundaries and needs seems to run across all those groups.


The path of becoming a therapist has been as much of a personal as well as a professional journey and I believe, to this day, these two cannot be entirely separated. I am particular interested in helping you find ways to get in touch with your authentic voice and self-expression while following a compassionate and trauma-informed approach that validates whatever strategies have helped you get to this point in your life.

As an intuitive person who has lived experience of neglecting my body, and keeping myself distracted for a good number of years due to not knowing how to express my authentic self in my environment, I am passionate about helping people reconnect with and strengthen their own inner compass and self-knowledge. I believe, when we truly listen to ourself, slow down and make space inside, we have all the answers inside us and I see it as an honour to accompy people on this path to liberation, self-connection, and inner clarity and confidence.
