Get to Know Me
I am a fully qualified and accredited integrative therapist, experienced in working with both couples and individuals of all ages and backgrounds. I believe we all hold the potential to live as our best selves: content, and at peace. The key to this lies in understanding ourselves more deeply.
​
Some clients come to me in the midst of crisis, seeking immediate support, while others may be generally content but want guidance in moving forward with their lives. A central part of therapy often involves exploring how past experiences have shaped the person you are today, and how that awareness can help you create meaningful change.
​
In my work with couples, I often see partners who have slipped into unhelpful habits and want support in rebuilding a healthy, thriving relationship. Many couples wait until things feel close to breaking point before seeking help, which can place enormous strain on the partnership. Having someone offer perspective and facilitate a reset can be a powerful step toward restoring connection.
​
My ethos is simple: every client is unique. As an integrative therapist, I adapt our therapeutic journey to meet your needs in the way that serves you best.
​
I also offer free, in-person assessments for individuals. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions about starting therapy, and to see whether working together feels like the right fit.
