trauma-informed approach and EMDR expertise
My approach combines Gestalt and person-centred foundations with a trauma-informed perspective, allowing therapy to address immediate difficulties while also fostering meaningful, long-term change.

People come to therapy from different starting points. Some are looking for help with anxiety, stress, or depression. Others are struggling with recurring difficulties in relationships. Some already know that trauma or EMDR work is what they want. My approach is designed to meet people at these different entry points while offering one coherent way of working.
I can support you if you’re struggling with anxiety, panic, overwhelm, low mood, stress, sleep difficulties, or challenges adjusting to life changes and transitions. We can start by helping you feel more stable and cope with immediate difficulties, while also exploring the deeper reasons behind these feelings over time.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and centred around you as a person. I pay close attention to your unique experiences, feelings, and needs, and we build a trusting connection together. I’m also clinically grounded, so our work is informed by psychological understanding, while remaining flexible and tailored to your situation. Depending on what you’re looking for, we can focus on symptom relief and solution-oriented goals, or take more time to explore things in depth—always at a pace that feels right for you.
