My story
How I came to counselling
I've always been the person friends and family turn to when they need to talk something through. Becoming a counsellor felt like a natural extension of those instincts — a way to develop those skills properly and help more people make sense of what they’re carrying.
What I discovered during my training was much more than I expected: fascinating insights into how our brains and bodies respond to stress and trauma, and how powerful it can be to feel truly heard without judgement.
Every client teaches me something new about resilience, creativity, and what it means to be human. I continue my professional development through courses, reading, and regular clinical supervision.

My approach
Your life experience,
my professional skills.
An approach shaped around you.
The experiences people bring to counselling are always unique — but the patterns underneath rarely are. My knowledge, tools, and training help identify and work through those patterns, but there’s no formula. Everything flows from your experience. I show up as a real person: curious, down-to-earth, and without an agenda.
At its heart, counselling is a human connection. I meet you with empathy, warmth, and without judgement — and I show up as a real person too, not a blank screen. You get someone engaged with your experience, not just nodding along.
Drawing on neuroscience and somatic approaches, I help you understand how your nervous system and body shape your experience. The physical and the psychological aren’t separate — and understanding that connection can be liberating.
I draw on different models — psychodynamic thinking, CBT, Existential therapy, and IFS — to offer ideas, tools, and techniques most useful for you. No single method works for everyone. The approach fits the person, not the other way around.
