About me and my therapy practice
Whether you're anxious, burnt out/stressed, experiencing bereavement/loss or just need someone neutral and kind to talk to about what is happening for you, you will be offered acceptance exactly as you are with me.
I understand the importance of affirming spaces where identity is able to be explored but is always respected and celebrated. I also know the pressures of navigating demanding workplaces and workloads. I have an interest in working with those who are exploring their identity, are neurodivergent, experiencing workplace stress, anxiety or low self esteem.
I believe therapy can be transformative. Not in the sense of forcing change, but by creating a space where people can connect to themselves. Which might begin quietly in moments of insight, having the courage to speak a truth aloud or in being met with genuine empathy. These moments can accommodate profound shifts in how we relate to ourselves and others.
Practice description
I believe people blossom when they feel seen, heard and understood. My therapeutic approach is integrative (which is therapist speak for a bit of this and a bit of that - depending on what is likely to be useful for what is being discussed) but the client (you) is always the best expert on themselves. I don’t assume there is a right way for a person to "Do Therapy" and adapt my approach to the needs and goals of each person I work with - but always working with curiosity, kindness and integrity.
Curiosity helps me stay open to a client’s experience, helping to gently uncover patterns, possibilities, and new perspectives. Kindness shapes the atmosphere we create together, where it is possible to explore even the most difficult parts of a story without fear of judgement or shame. Integrity ensures that the work remains honest, grounded, and aligned with what truly matters to the client.
