My approach to mental health care prioritises openness and honesty, creating a space where clients feel free to explore and express themselves. I aim to help clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences, empowering them to live in alignment with their values. 

Rather than focusing solely on symptoms or diagnoses, I work collaboratively with clients to explore the broader context and emotional patterns shaping their difficulties. I believe that distress often carries deeper meaning and reflects important, though sometimes unconscious, aspects of a person’s experience. Exploring these experiences with curiosity and developing understanding can create lasting, meaningful change. 

I prioritise the therapeutic relationship, fostering honest and sometimes challenging conversations that support growth. My approach is flexible and tailored, focusing on what’s getting in the way of a client’s ability to flourish. I aim to support clients in embracing themselves more fully, so they can move away from avoidance and step into a more fulfilling, authentic life.

What’s in it for you? Self-understanding, authentic connection, and support to move beyond stuck patterns toward a more fulfilling, values-aligned life.
