About Me

I offer short-term and long-term therapy to adults. I work with a range of emotional difficulties including: mood disorders, anxiety, stress and burnout, interpersonal/relational difficulties, perinatal mental health, adjustment to life events, and bereavements. I also work with individuals who may not be in crisis but feel stuck in familiar patterns- whether in relationships, work or their sense of self- and are ready for deeper understanding and meaningful change.

Approach

Therapy with me is an active and collaborative process, offering feedback, thoughtful challenge and practical tools where helpful. Therapy may explore how past experiences and relationships may shape our current patterns/relationships. I also integrate mindfulness based techniques to support emotional regulation and greater steadiness in demanding lives.
