About me and my therapy practice
Seeking therapy is a brave step, and finding a space where you feel genuinely understood can take time. I offer a warm, inclusive space for adults navigating life's complexities, whether you are working through deep-seated patterns or simply trying to make sense of how you feel.
I work alongside clients experiencing:
• Childhood and relational trauma, PTSD
• Anxiety, depression, grief and relationship dynamics
• Navigating identity, belonging and feelings of being 'othered' or out of place
• Difficult relationships with food and body image
• Burnout, masking fatigue and sensory overload
• Relocation, cultural adaptation and living abroad
You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. In our sessions, I draw on psychodynamic talk therapy, body-based awareness, and creative techniques to help you make sense of why you feel, think, or react the way you do, working at a pace that feels safe, comfortable, and right for you. My practice is neuroaffirming, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive. I offer a space to address what’s happening for you right now, while gently exploring where those patterns began when you’re ready.
Having navigated my own complex background, I understand how deeply personal it is to work through feelings of being 'othered' or out of place, and to find a true sense of belonging. Our work is built on genuine human connection. Together, we will gently break down old patterns, navigate difficult emotions, and build genuine self-compassion.
I work primarily online with clients, offering a flexible space wherever you are based, though local in-person sessions in Gaillac, France are also available. Taking the first step can feel daunting, but you don't have to carry it all alone. Please reach out for a low-pressure chat to discuss how I work and see if we might be a good fit.
My first session
The first session is all about getting to know you and understanding the reasons you’re seeking therapy. It’s a time to discuss your concerns, share your goals, and begin building a trusting relationship in a safe and welcoming space.
During this session, we will start by exploring your background, current challenges, and the emotional or psychological difficulties you’re experiencing. I take an integrative approach, meaning we’ll draw on a variety of therapeutic tools tailored to your individual needs. This may include psychodynamic exploration, somatic awareness, creative techniques, and trauma-informed care—all designed to support your healing in a holistic, compassionate way.
We’ll work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you, and you will have the opportunity to ask any questions about the process. My approach is collaborative and relational, and I very much believe that you are the expert in your own experience. The first session is also an opportunity for you to decide if my therapeutic style feels like a good fit for you, as establishing trust and a sense of safety is vital for the work ahead.
By the end of the session, we will have an understanding of what you hope to achieve in therapy and will begin exploring the steps to support your healing journey.
