How I work.

My Approach to therapy.

At the heart of my therapeutic approach lies the understanding that each client is unique and their therapy journey should reflect that individuality. There’s no one-size-fits-all method in my practice; sessions are crafted to suit your specific needs. Upholding the pillars of confidentiality, privacy and ethical practice I prioritise evidence-based therapies that undergo rigorous research. Embracing a holistic perspective, I recognise the intrinsic connection between the mind and body, particularly valuable approach in trauma-informed care.

Therapy, to me, is a collaborative journey; a space not only to equip you with skills applicable across various life domains but also to foster new relationships and healthier ways of interacting with yourself and others. It’s about supporting you to thrive and grow in the direction you choose.
