I usually respond in 24 hours.

You have arrived on my page because you are looking for a solution to an unbearable situation.

You might feel overwhelmed, sad, or confused like some of my previous clients. Self-help books, podcasts, online support groups, family and friends can no longer help.

You are looking for a real deal that will change things for good. You do not want to waste time and money on unhelpful therapies that do not work for you.

You might feel like you have lost a piece of yourself and are about to break down. You may feel like your life reflects what other people want from you, which has become a heavy burden you cannot carry anymore.

You might feel that your body is separated from your thoughts, and you can suffer from insomnia, overeating, unexplained angry reactions, panic attacks, and paralysing moods of despair. You may feel increasingly separated from others and hunted by critical thoughts. 

On the other hand, it is possible that you are finding yourself in a toxic relationship, and you are unable to say how you arrived here.

Maybe you work shockingly long hours but never feel good enough about your performance. You are afraid of burnout but cannot say "no" to unreasonable requests, and you take on more responsibilities.

It is also possible that on top of everything, you struggle with symptoms of ADHD and/or ASD, and you wish you did not have to mask and pretend like you manage anymore.

Overcome life's challenges with therapy for lasting change and a happier life. 

I facilitate a safe and comfortable environment for you to access previously unspoken issues.

I listen to your thoughts and feelings empathically and without judgment.

I give you feedback and ask questions to help you explore and express your thoughts and feelings.

Together, we will explore your past and present to localise the source of your feelings, thoughts, beliefs, and life patterns.

I facilitate reconnecting with your core self by working on dreams and phantasies, concentrating on retelling a personal narrative, and exploring your art and writing.

I propose explorative exercises around connecting to your inner child and the hero journey pathway. I also suggest some Cognitive Behavioural Therapy exercises that can lead you to change your thoughts, beliefs, and actions.

I also want to work with the body and lead you in somatic exercises, like guided meditation.

I lead you in working with shame, aided by Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, to explore and change negative patterns of behaviour that you probably developed to avoid accessing your complicated feelings.

I assist you in exploring, understanding and dealing with trauma responses like fight (anger), flight (anxiety), freeze (motivation paralyse), and collapse (dissociation).

I assist you in exploring and recalibrating your view of your needs to establish the right life direction. I will collaborate with you to navigate your thoughts and feelings during transitional periods of your life, such as divorce, pregnancy, bereavement, or a change of career.

I will help you learn tools and strategies to regulate your feelings, such as avoiding uncontrollable anger or panic attacks.

I will encourage you to explore self–care practices and develop stable, long-lasting habits that make a balanced life possible.

I coach you through navigating your ADHD or ASD symptoms like procrastination, attention issues, memory struggles, problems with organisation and time management, and impulsivity.

The initial sessions are dedicated to assessment, a process designed to gain a comprehensive understanding of you. We will discuss your past and present to gather important information.

 Together, we will set therapy goals that may evolve during therapy. 

This process is designed to ensure you feel understood and valued.
