Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.

ABOUT ME

My experience has taught me that each person’s therapeutic needs differ because everybody's lives are different, and they come to therapy for various reasons. This is why I work flexibly and creatively in a soulful and companionate way, emphasising a spirit of mutuality. I offer a nonjudgmental, secure, and respectful environment where the relationship between you as a client and myself as a therapist is at the heart of the work.

This model is called Relational Transactional Analysis and explores an individual’s personality and how this has been shaped by their experiences, particularly those in childhood. I deeply believe that the mind is so powerful it can keep us trapped in unhealthy patterns that affect our relationships and the way we view ourselves. 

Therefore, by working together on increasing your awareness of your way of being in the world and in relationships with others, we get closer to recognising your self-worth and achieving our goals by focusing on the commitment to change.

With a deep understanding of neurodiversity, I specialise in providing support to individuals with diverse neurological profiles, including dyslexia, ADHD, and autism spectrum conditions. I have helped clients navigate the emotional challenges associated with neurodiversity, empowering them to thrive in academic, professional, and personal settings.

I recognise the unique stressors managers face in today's fast-paced work environment. Through the relational approach to counselling and psychotherapy, I equip managers with the tools and strategies to foster a supportive and inclusive workplace culture. From stress management to conflict resolution, I am committed to helping managers lead with confidence and compassion.

My experience of growing up in a multicultural family manifests in an interest in exploring transgenerational and cultural issues from a therapeutic perspective. If this applies to you, I would be willing to help you understand your journey.
