Are you struggling with anxiety, stress, or depression? Or are you experiencing bereavement and grief, or perhaps navigating life’s transitions and changes, whether chosen or unexpected? Maybe you have experienced traumatic events?

My practice is evidence-based, drawing on the best available research alongside clinical knowledge and, importantly, your individual experiences, preferences, values and goals.

My understanding of anxiety, stress, depression and trauma is informed by perspectives on nervous system regulation, the Window of Tolerance and Polyvagal Theory. I use these as frameworks for thinking about experiences of safety, threat, arousal and regulation. These can help us consider how difficult experiences may affect you physically, emotionally, and relationally, and how their effects may continue to show up in the present. My work with bereavement and loss is informed by contemporary theories and research on grief. I recognise that grief is not a linear process and that people experience and adapt to loss in different ways. Attachment theory helps us understand relational patterns and experiences, including the importance of a secure base and felt safety.

My aim is to provide a safe, compassionate and supportive space where difficult experiences can be explored with empathy and understood without judgement. Together, we can explore new ways of coping and work towards greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and a stronger sense of safety and balance.
