Are you feeling overwhelmed by change, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or weighed down by self-doubt? You don’t have to navigate it alone.
I’m a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist offering individual, emotion-focused sessions grounded in the person-centred approach. This means I centre our work around what truly matters to you, fostering a supportive, equal relationship where your voice leads the way.
My own experience with therapy over the past 15 years has been deeply transformative — it inspired me to pursue this work and now shapes how I support others on their path.
I work intuitively and compassionately, helping you explore emotions, develop insight, and move toward healing and personal growth. I don't offer quick fixes or one-size-fits-all advice — instead, I help you uncover your own answers with gentle guidance and respect.
I have a special interest in supporting people through major life transitions, including relocation and cultural adjustment. As someone who has moved countries multiple times, both as a child and adult, I understand the emotional complexities this can bring. My academic research also explored this topic in depth.
My background includes working with people experiencing chronic mental health challenges, neurodiversity, and disability. I bring a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive lens to my practice, and aim to create a safe, affirming space for people from all backgrounds — including LGBTQIA+ and culturally diverse communities.
If you’re curious about how therapy could support you, I offer a free consultation — let’s connect and explore your next steps together.
