A highly qualified professional with a personal story

I am continuously trained and experienced in a range of psychological methods and understand the science of the brain/body connection. I believe that understanding our conditioning and fear responses coupled with reconnecting with our bodies and processing emotions effectively can be life changing, and I am honoured to have been a part of that journey for many clients. 

I understand that before any of the theoretical models can be utilised there must first be a safe space, a mutual respect and a commitment to your therapy goals. Whatever your needs I am empathic, skilled and here to honour working in whichever way leaves you feeling heard, understood and empowered. I often work with clients who have tried many therapists or approaches before and are feeling a little hopeless. If therapy hasn't worked for you in the past, don't fear - sometimes more experience and relational depth is needed for change. 

 

 I am experienced working with issues such as trauma, identity, anxiety, depression, family issues, relationship diversity, low self esteem, GSRD struggles and more. I am kink aware and sex positive. 

 

As an integrative therapist I use a wide range of frameworks including CBT, mindfulness, somatic experiencing, psychodynamics, IFS, attachment theory and more.

 

I am also a qualified counselling supervisor and have a passion for helping budding and experienced therapists alike. As a supervisor I aim to help you feel seen and supported in order to expand your capacity for holding space for clients. I can work in a way that best encourages expansion of yourself and your practice and offer practical resources and direction if required. My core theory is the 7 eyed model, but my supervision style is relational and eclectic.
