About me and my therapy practice

Therapist specialising in attachment work. My approach focuses on understanding the significance of early experiences & their impact on the emotional wellbeing and relationships in adulthood. Online sessions for individuals.

I have a special passion for working with adults who may have faced challenges in their relationship with parents while growing up. Drawing from attachment theory, I provide a warm and gentle therapeutic approach that aims to create a safe space for healing.

In my practice, I welcome anyone who’s feeling lost, overwhelmed, anxious, stuck or simply unhappy. There are no expectations—I’ll meet you where you are, and we’ll work together to find a way forward. I enjoy working with both neurotypical and neurodivergent minds, and many of my clients have been diagnosed with or suspect they have ASD and/or ADHD.

Finding a counsellor can feel overwhelming, and taking that first step is often the hardest part. You might be wondering, "How can talking help change things?" When life's challenges become too much to handle alone, talking to someone outside your immediate circle of friends and family can provide the clarity and guidance you need.

What difference can therapy make? It can help with:

  • Coping with overwhelming feelings
  • Making sense of past experiences
  • Gaining inner stability and balance
  • Stopping going in circles and get unstuck
  • Improving confidence and self-esteem
  • Giving you ‘permission’ to be yourself and take care of yourself without feeling guilty
  • Improving your relationships, especially your relationship with yourself

Practice description

Attachment-based counselling and psychotherapy for adults, online.

Having been in therapy myself, where I often felt understood but still wondered, “Is that all there is?”, I’ve come to realise that I am driven not only to help clients process deep emotions but to also support meaningful, sustainable change.

My approach combines Attachment theory with insights from the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model. I have found that these models, particularly their focus on inner harmony and non-pathologising approach, can be game-changing for many clients.

In my busy private practice, I have the privilege of working with a wide range of clients, supporting them through deep, often life-changing work. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in various settings, including the NHS and charitable organisations, where I supported people facing all kinds of challenges. My experience includes working with both NHS patients and staff, supporting people in primary and secondary mental health care, as well as working in crisis resolution. I’ve also worked closely with survivors of trauma, including those who have experienced sexual violence.
