About me

My practice
I aim to offer a space where people can slow down and begin to make sense of experiences that feel stuck, challenging, or difficult to hold alone. You may find yourself here in the midst of transition, loss, relational difficulty, or uncertainty - or simply when familiar ways of living or coping no longer feel sustainable, and life begins to feel less steady than before.

In this work, we turn toward what is present with care and curiosity - the patterns, the parts, the places in you that formed long ago in response to life, relationships, and the broader environments you have moved through.

My practice includes the whole person - not just what you think, but what you feel and what your body holds. My approach draws on a wide range of influences, and continues to be shaped by ongoing training and supervision. What stays constant is a genuine curiosity about your experience, and a commitment to working in a way that actually fits you.

Therapy is not about fixing or forcing change - but about creating the conditions where something new can emerge - a perspective, a feeling, a renewed way of relating to yourself, to others, and the world. I am happy to have an initial conversation to see if we are a good fit.
