My Story

“I didn’t become a therapist because I had all the answers. I became one because I know what it’s like to feel lost in the questions, and to wonder whether you’ll ever find your way back to yourself.”

There was a time when I looked as though I was coping, while inside I felt overwhelmed, disconnected and unsure of who I was. I knew something needed to change, but understanding what had happened to me didn’t always make it easier to live with the emotional impact.

My journey into psychotherapy grew from my own experiences of domestic abuse, PTSD and the long, often difficult process of finding my way back to myself. It wasn’t simply a career choice; it came from wanting to understand what I had been through and discovering what could genuinely help.

For a long time, I tried to make sense of my experiences. Talking therapy helped me recognise patterns, put things into perspective and understand my story. But even when I could explain what had happened logically, I still felt its effects emotionally and physically.

That’s when I discovered Brainspotting.

I’ll admit, I was sceptical at first. But experiencing it for myself opened my eyes to a different way of working with emotional distress. It made me curious about the connection between our minds, bodies and experiences, and how sometimes words alone don’t seem to capture what we’re feeling.

That curiosity became a passion, and eventually a career.

I went on to study counselling and psychotherapy, continuing my professional development through Brainspotting, IEMT and other therapeutic approaches.

But one of the most important things I’ve learned, both personally and professionally, is that there isn’t one approach that works for everyone.

We all have different experiences, different ways of coping and different needs.

Today, I offer a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever life has brought your way. Whether you’re struggling with trauma, anxiety, grief, relationships, low self-esteem or simply feeling like you’ve lost yourself somewhere along the way.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. You don’t even have to know where to begin.

And you certainly don’t have to pretend you’re okay when you’re not.

I believe therapy isn’t about fixing people. It’s about helping them understand themselves, reconnect with who they are and discover their own way forward.

Because sometimes, the most important journey we take is the one back to ourselves.
