About me

With over 20 years of experience working with individuals, I’m a strong believer in Albert Einstein’s idea that “Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them.” The therapy sessions I offer are designed to support clients in developing self-awareness, which is a vital step toward achieving meaningful personal growth. My approach is warm yet direct, helping clients gain meaningful insights that lead to practical and lasting changes in their lives and relationships.

My approach to individual therapy

Thank you for visiting my profile. Starting therapy is a meaningful step, and finding the right therapist is an important part of that journey. I offer a safe, supportive, and confidential space where you can speak openly — whether you're feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult life event, or simply want to understand yourself more fully. Together, we can explore patterns that may no longer serve you and work towards greater clarity, resilience, and emotional well-being.

Our first individual session

I offer in person and online therapy via secure video sessions, providing flexibility for clients across the UK and internationally. I currently have availability for daytime and some early evening appointments, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Please get in touch to discuss current availability or to arrange a brief initial conversation.
