About me and my therapy practice
Are you struggling beneath the appearance of coping, self-reliance, or confidence? I became a therapist after a long career in the arts, and I help people with anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma, low self-esteem and emotional overwhelm.
Many of the people I work with appear to function well but privately carry far more than those around them realise. Beneath the surface there may be self-criticism, grief, anxiety, or a persistent sense of being too much, or not enough, and having to manage everything alone. Some even feel the need to apologise simply for being who they are.
Therapy
I know how exhausting it can be to feel that you have to keep difficult experiences to yourself or make sense of them on your own. I want to offer a relationship where you don’t have to do either.
Together, with care and compassion, we can look at whatever is troubling you, allowing thoughts and feelings to emerge in their own time, without pressure to explain or justify.
With warmth and kindness, I’ll stay alongside you, however difficult things feel. Together, we’ll take time to understand and make room for everything you’re going through.
As our work develops, clients often find they become less hard on themselves and more able to trust their own thoughts and feelings. Relationships can begin to feel less effortful, emotions less overwhelming, and it may become easier to recognise what you need and speak more openly about it.
My background in the arts continues to shape the way I work as an integrative therapist. It taught me that understanding begins with curiosity rather than assumption. Every person’s experiences are different and, I believe deserve to be understood on their own terms. I am comfortable with complexity, sensitivity, and emotional intensity, without needing to simplify your experience or move too quickly towards solutions.
You do not need to arrive with the right words or a neatly explained story. We can begin wherever you are and work at a pace that feels manageable.
