I work with adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, trauma, self-worth & identity concerns, & challenges within relationships & family dynamics. I also welcome neurodivergent adults seeking support.

My clients often describe feeling anxious, overwhelmed or down, with self-criticism, self-doubt, or shame making things harder. Often painful or traumatic experiences from the past still feel present, leaving them on edge or easily triggered in everyday life. These experiences may have shaped how they see themselves, how much they trust others, & how safe they feel in the world.

I bring curiosity, kindness & a thoughtful approach to therapy. I listen closely to your experience & needs, taking time to understand the experiences & beliefs that have shaped you & the ways you respond to life. I care deeply about this work & want you to feel that we’re working together on the things that matter to you.

Together, we can explore patterns that leave you feeling stuck, work through painful experiences, & develop different ways of responding to yourself and others. My aim is to help you build a more compassionate understanding of yourself, feel more connected & fulfilled in your relationships, & move towards a life that feels meaningful to you.
