Book a sessionI have extensive experience in various clinical settings, including within the NHS, I have a deep understanding of mental health challenges and I specialise in supporting individuals and couples who have experienced trauma. In the therapy work, I prioritise building a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust, empathy, and respect. My focus is on empowering individuals to develop coping mechanisms, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful relationships. I offer a compassionate and integrative therapeutic approach, drawing from evidence-based modalities to address individual needs and support healing.
