Hey, I’m really glad you made it here. I know feeling anxious and stuck can be overwhelming, but this is a safe space where you can be yourself—no pressure, no judgment. We’ll take things at your pace, and I’m here to support you as you find your own way forward. You’re not alone in this.

Background

I’ve always wanted to help people—that was my dream from the start, so I thought teaching was the way to go. But in my late teens and early 20s, anxiety and panic attacks took over, and things felt really overwhelming. Studying psychology gave me the tools to understand what I was going through and helped me start healing. I found myself working in childcare, supporting children with additional needs and their families. It was there I realized I wanted to help people on a deeper level. Those experiences showed me that becoming a therapist was my true calling—to help others navigate their struggles, just like I did.

Your therapeutic experience with me

Using a warm, person-centred approach that combines CBT, ACT, and a strengths-based perspective, I’ll support you in understanding and managing your anxiety, quieting those nagging doubts, and building practical tools to help you feel more in control of your life. Together, we’ll explore what truly matters to you and help you reconnect with your strengths—even if they feel hidden right now. We’ll work on staying present, accepting tough emotions without judgment, and taking meaningful steps that reflect your values. This approach is about helping you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered—without the constant overwhelm. And remember, you don’t have to face this alone.
