My Approach

Are you watching a child struggle to navigate adolescence, or perhaps you’re a parent feeling overwhelmed by the responsibility of supporting them? Maybe you’re a young adult searching for direction, a professional weighed down by career pressures, or someone facing life’s transitions and seeking clarity amidst uncertainty. Whatever your age or background, life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, and I’m here to help.

Nobody is immune to life’s challenges, regardless of age or circumstance whether you’re a child, teenager, young adult, parent, or professional. It’s easy to push self-reflection aside when faced with deadlines, responsibilities, and daily pressures. Yet, ignoring these struggles can lead to burnout, self-doubt, and emotional strain. That’s where I can help.

As an integrative psychotherapist, I work with children aged 4–12, teenagers 13–19, young adults 20–25, adults 25+, and parents navigating complex challenges. Using a client-centred, trauma-informed, and relational approach, I create a safe, authentic, and supportive space to explore life’s difficulties. My practice is particularly helpful for those who may find it hard to engage, and I work at their pace to build trust and gently explore their inner worlds with care and respect.

I am passionate about addressing a client’s needs holistically, collaborating with the important people in their lives families, carers, social workers, and schools to ensure an inclusive and effective therapeutic process. My goal is to empower clients to better understand themselves the good parts and the less comfortable parts and to provide a therapeutic lens through which they can move forward with confidence.

Being integratively trained allows me to work flexibly, tailoring my approach to suit each individual. I draw from a range of techniques, including play, creative arts, sand tray work, and talking therapies, depending on what resonates most with the client. Whether you’re seeking support for your child, yourself, or your family, my approach is adaptable to meet your unique needs.

I understand how challenging it can be to be vulnerable and recognise the courage it takes to open up. That’s why I offer a non-judgmental, confidential, and safe space where clients can reflect and process their experiences. I’m here to listen, support, and guide my clients toward meaningful change.

About Me

With over 17 years of experience supporting people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life, my work has always centred on helping individuals navigate challenges and thrive. My journey into psychotherapy was shaped by a deep desire to empower others a commitment that began as a support worker for children with special educational needs. From there, I expanded my experience by working with non-profits in Canada to assist struggling communities and later gained hands-on insight as a nanny in England. These roles gave me a rich understanding of the unique strengths and challenges faced by children, parents, and families as well as valuable insights into the complexities adults encounter deepening my respect for each individual’s story.

Inspired by these experiences, I pursued formal training, earning a Diploma in Child and Adolescent Counselling, followed by an MA in Psychotherapy. This advanced training not only deepened my expertise in working with children and young people but also equipped me with the skills to support adults and parents, addressing a wide range of emotional, relational, and developmental challenges. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working in therapeutic charities, private practice, and the education sector across both primary and secondary. My roles as both a clinician and project manager for mental health and wellbeing have allowed me to support individuals and families through a wide range of emotional and developmental challenges while implementing systemic approaches for lasting impact.

I combine professional expertise with a warm, inclusive, and culturally sensitive approach to help clients build resilience and grow. Whether through short-term guidance or long-term therapy, I’m committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients of all ages feel supported and empowered to explore their lives and emotions.

I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I do promise to join you on this collaborative journey of unpacking mental challenges, exploring life’s struggles, and searching for solutions—as we laugh (and cry) along the way.
