About me and my therapy practice

Life can feel challenging and overwhelming at times, and I’m here to help you navigate those feelings with warmth and understanding. My approach is deeply collaborative—I’m not just here to listen, but to work with you to explore every aspect of your experience. Together, we look at how not only your inner world but also the influences of culture, society, and personal relationships contribute to your feelings. I warmly welcome everyone, including those who are neurodivergent, chronically ill or disabled, LGBTQIA+, involved in kink communities, sex workers, foreign nationals, and racialised individuals. Your experiences matter, and I’m here to help you understand and gently shift any patterns that might be weighing you down.

Practice description

Our work together is a true partnership. In every session, you’re not only heard but actively involved in shaping the conversation. I’m here to offer empathy and understanding as we explore both the personal and external factors that contribute to your experiences. Together, we’ll gently examine how relationships, cultural background, societal expectations, and systemic forces can affect your emotional well-being. This isn’t just about talking—it’s about collaborating on practical ways to ease your struggles and nurture your strengths.

I use straightforward, clear trauma-informed methods to help us identify and gently shift the patterns that may be holding you back. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling more understood, empowered, and equipped to handle life’s challenges. Your unique story deserves careful attention, and I’m committed to walking beside you as we explore every part of your experience.

My first session

Our first session is a chance for us to connect deeply and openly. We’ll have a friendly, no-pressure conversation about what matters most to you. In this session, we’ll begin to explore how your personal experiences and the wider world around you intertwine, setting the stage for a collaborative journey toward healing and growth. I’m here to ensure you feel supported and understood from the very first moment, and together, we’ll start building a path toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

If you’re ready to take that step towards feeling truly seen and supported, please reach out at Beyondlabelstherapy.com or info@beyondlabelstherapy.com. I look forward to welcoming you and working together with genuine care.
