Maybe you’ve spent a lifetime feeling “different” without having the words for it—struggling to make sense of why certain environments exhaust you, why relationships feel difficult, or why you've always needed to hide parts of yourself to be accepted. If you're exploring your neurodivergence—whether that’s autism, ADHD, or something less defined—you might be searching for a place where you don’t have to mask, perform, or explain your experience from scratch.

​

Or perhaps you’re living with a recent or long-standing cancer diagnosis, or supporting someone who is, and are trying to make sense of the emotional weight that comes with it. You might be feeling isolated, in shock, or like you're holding too much for too many people, with nowhere to bring your own pain.

​

You may also be carrying trauma. Not always the kind people ask about—like a single traumatic event—but the quieter, more complex kind. Maybe you’ve been hyper-independent for so long, always managing, always coping… but secretly exhausted, disconnected, or struggling to feel truly safe—either in relationships, or in your own body.

​

If any of this feels familiar, I want to say this clearly: there is nothing wrong with you. Your pain makes sense. And you don’t have to carry it alone.

​

My approach is relational and collaborative. I offer presence, deep listening, and space for you to unfold. Whether we’re exploring the impact of trauma, navigating the emotional terrain of illness, or gently unmasking your neurodivergent identity, our work will go at your pace, guided by what feels safe and meaningful for you.

 

At times I may include creative ways of working - such as connecting with body awareness, using mindfulness, metaphor or writing. In a near future, I also plan to offer sound therapy as part of my practice. Currently training in this area, I’m excited to explore how sound and vibration can support emotional regulation, embodiment, and deeper healing for clients who are drawn to it.

​

I know how important it is to feel truly seen, especially when the world has misunderstood or pathologized your experience. My practice is firmly rooted in respect for neurodivergent ways of being, and in trauma-informed principles that prioritise emotional and physical safety. I won’t ask you to revisit things before you're ready, and I’ll always invite collaboration and consent in how we work together.

​

Clients often say they feel like they don’t have to explain everything—that I “just get it.” It's about creating a relationship where you can begin to feel what it’s like to be understood, rather than analysed.

​

Beginning therapy can feel daunting—especially if you’ve had to be the strong one for so long. But therapy doesn’t have to be about fixing what’s “wrong.” It can be about coming home to yourself.

 

You're allowed to want more than just coping. You're allowed to take up space. You're allowed to begin again.
