My Approach

My approach to therapy
I create a therapeutic space that’s empathic, understanding and solution focused.

I’m a big believer that holding compassionate space for self-inquiry is vital to the healing process. That’s why I encourage my clients to develop new behaviours and ways of being that cultivate resiliency and are transformative.

A safe space
As humans, we’re wired for safety. When we’re feeling safe, we’re best able to grow, flourish and change. Our therapeutic relationship is based on respect, confidentiality, acceptance and compassion.

Professional
Drawing from years of clinical experience and training, the approach is evidence-based and confidential Therapy is a big investment, so the therapeutic work will be purposeful and orientated towards your goals.

Tailored to you
We all have unique personalities that are shaped by biology, relationships, experiences and our environments. And so, our work together is guided by your hopes, goals and the changes you want to experience. I get that therapy is a big investment, so it’s important that we work together to tailor it to your needs

Self-Inquiry
I believe in holding compassionate space for self-inquiry and encouraging transformative behaviors. Uncover underlying patterns, develop new skills, and cultivate healing from within, integrating mind, body, and feelings for personal growth.

New ways
I cultivate opportunities for you to learn, choose and practice new skills. This way, alongside talking about your issues, you also experience something new within yourself. The result? Healthier ways of being become possible.

Mind, body, feelings + more
We know ourselves and the world through our minds, feelings and bodies. I help you discover and value all these different ways of knowing, so you can make sense of your experience. Because it’s from this awareness that something new emerges.

About Me

I am trained in Psychosynthesis psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing® and have been delivering mindfulness and emotional resilience courses for the past 15 years. My passion lies in understanding how we know and experience ourselves, others and the world.

During my 25-year journey of self-discovery and healing, I explored therapies and philosophies across the globe, including India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and the USA. This exploration led me to realize that true happiness and ease come from within, rather than external possessions. This insight fuels my dedication to promoting psychological and emotional well-being as the ultimate catalyst for a fulfilling life.

Through my diverse experiences, I have cultivated empathy and an open-minded, non-judgmental perspective. Additionally, my passion for kayaking and rivers has taught me to be present, navigate life's challenges, and appreciate its inherent flow.

Witnessing the transformative power in others brings me immense fulfillment. Whether it involves fostering healthier relationships, uncovering purpose, or providing support during difficult times, guiding individuals on their healing journeys is an invaluable privilege.

Continual personal growth and learning inspire me, and I find great joy in sharing my knowledge to help others lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
