I am UK licensed psychotherapist and breathwork practitioner with a passion for guiding individuals through their journey toward holistic healing and personal transformation that is firmly rooted in the understanding that our nervous system is the bedrock of therapy. It informs every modality I practice, as I view the regulation and integration of nervous system states as essential to achieving mental and emotional well-being.

I work with clients facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, PTSD and complex PTSD (CPTSD). I am deeply committed to supporting individuals who have experienced traumatic events, whether in childhood or adulthood, and helping them navigate the path toward healing and resilience.

In my practice, I integrate a variety of therapeutic modalities tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. These include Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), the SATIR process,Breathwork, Hypnotherapy, and Compassionate inquiry which I am currently studying under the guidance of Dr. Gabor Maté. Through these approaches, I provide a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their inner worlds, understand their patterns & reactions, overcome past wounds, and have access to more choices that supports the life they want.

In addition to individual therapy, I also work with couples facing challenges in their relationships. While I do not work with infidelity, I am passionate about helping couples navigate difficult times and strengthen their connection. I particularly enjoy working with couples at the beginning of their marriage or relationship journey, providing coaching and support to help them build a strong foundation for a fulfilling partnership using The Gottman Method.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in a deep respect for each individual’s unique journey. Whether you’re seeking relief from emotional pain, healing from past traumas, or support in enhancing your relationship, I am here to support you every step of the way.

If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth, I invite you to schedule a session with me. Together, we can work toward unlocking your innate potential for resilience, joy, and fulfilment.
