Maybe you've been carrying this question around for a while: why am I like this? Why do I keep ending up here, feeling this way, again? Or maybe you've already noticed your patterns and wonder where you learned certain behaviours. These questions don't mean something is wrong with you. They mean you're paying attention, and that's usually where the real work can start.

Together, we'll explore the roots of your patterns, how your history shows up in your present, while building practical tools to help you feel more grounded day to day. I work with clients navigating depressive and anxiety symptoms, relationship patterns, self-esteem, life transitions, and more, and I tailor sessions to meet your specific needs.

I often use Emotionally Focused Therapy as a foundation, drawing on tools from CBT, ACT, and Psychodynamic approaches to create a person-centred experience that is not one size fits all. My focus is on self-exploration: answering questions like 'what makes me me?' and 'why am I the way that I am?'

If this sounds like the kind of support you've been looking for, I'd love to hear from you. Reach out to schedule a first session. There's no pressure, just a conversation about whether we're a good fit.
