About me and my therapy practice
Life can feel like navigating a dense forest; sometimes the path is clear and easy, while at other times it is tangled and overwhelming. You don’t have to walk it alone. I’m here to walk beside you, helping you find your footing, clear the underbrush, and reconnect with your true self.
If you’re carrying the weight of anxiety, relationship struggles, big life changes, or a quiet sense that you’ve lost touch with who you really are, together we can create a safe clearing where you can pause, breathe, and begin to see your path with fresh eyes.
I work with people who:
- Feel drained by anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, over-achieving or burnout
- Are healing from heartbreak or navigating complex relationships, including LGBTQ+ identities
- Face big life transitions like career changes or identity shifts
- Experience deep sensitivity and emotional overwhelm
- Struggle with creative blocks or a longing for authentic self-expression
Psychosynthesis sees you as a whole being, more than your struggles, with many parts waiting to be heard and integrated. Our work is like tending a garden: gently uncovering hidden roots, nurturing new growth, and helping your authentic self bloom.
In sessions, you can expect:
- Guided reflections and creative exercises tailored to you
- Practical tools for managing emotions and setting boundaries
- Space to explore your inner world and spiritual longings if you wish
- A steady, compassionate presence holding your struggles and strengths
This is a journey of becoming more whole, more conscious, and more connected to your deeper values and purpose; not quick fixes, but meaningful growth.
Clients often say I’m warm, empathetic, and skilled at holding complex feelings with care and clarity. Whether you’re facing uncertainty, healing old wounds, or seeking meaning, I’ll walk beside you with kindness, honesty, and hope.
If you’re ready to start this journey, please reach out. Together, we’ll create a space where your true self can flourish.
Practice description
I aim to create a space that feels collaborative and grounded in honesty, curiosity, and self-responsibility. I’ll support you to make meaningful changes at a pace that feels right for you, offering gentle accountability, encouragement, and practical tools along the way.
I really believe we come to know our worth when it’s reflected to us by someone who sees us with care and compassion. That belief is at the heart of how I work: I want you to feel seen, heard, and truly understood.
Depending on your needs, I might draw on things like active listening, guided reflection, creative visualisation, inner parts work, and imagination-based exercises. These approaches can help you reconnect with your inner resources and engage your will in a more intentional and empowered way.
If early life experiences or childhood trauma are still playing out in your present, we can gently explore and heal those patterns, so you can step more fully into your adult self and reclaim a sense of agency in the areas where you’ve felt stuck or small.
I also love working with your creativity, imagination, and intuition, parts of ourselves that often get left behind in a world that can be overly focused on logic and productivity. These inner qualities can be powerful guides on your path toward healing and self-discovery.
My first session
During your first session, you can discuss your issue in more depth. You will also experience my working style, enabling you to decide whether you wish to commit to a working agreement. At that point, any outstanding questions you might have about my contract (to be read beforehand) will also be answered.
At the end of the first session, you will be asked to decide within a week if you wish to commit to working together. I will be able to offer you a weekly slot at the same time every week that will be just for you (I offer some flexibility wherever possible if you need to reschedule once in a while).
