Are we a good fit?

I work best with adults who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck, or unsettled by changes in their lives, relationships, or sense of self.

Many of the people I work with are curious and reflective but may feel unsure about why they are struggling or how to move forward. They are often navigating transitions — such as relationship changes, health issues, career shifts, or deeper existential questions — and are seeking a space to explore these experiences with care and depth.

This work is particularly suited to those who want to better understand themselves and their patterns, rather than looking only for surface-level solutions.

How I work

My approach is compassionate, reflective and exploratory. I offer both solution-focused work and deeper therapeutic exploration, depending on what feels most helpful for you.

I work psychodynamically and draw on Jungian-oriented psychotherapy, relationship therapy and Transactional Analysis. This allows us to explore both present-day difficulties and the underlying emotional patterns, meanings and experiences that may be influencing them.

Therapy with me is paced carefully. I aim to create a space where you feel heard, understood and supported, and where insight can develop naturally over time.

What are sessions like

Sessions are calm, thoughtful and reflective. We’ll take time to explore what’s happening for you, at a pace that feels manageable and respectful.

You can expect a space where feelings are welcomed, curiosity is encouraged, and there is room to think, reflect and grow. Therapy isn’t about forcing change, but about developing understanding that allows new possibilities to emerge.
