My Approach

I provide a confidential and non-judgemental space in which you can feel safe to bring, and work through, the struggles that led you to seek support at this stage. I will respect your autonomy and will listen with compassion and acceptance. I will follow your steps and facilitate your exploration, gently guiding and challenging you, helping you to get a deeper understanding of yourself and what you experience.

I approach my work from the perspective that each individual has a unique way of experiencing life and therefore the solutions they are looking for are also unique to them. I have a holistic perspective, meaning that I integrate body, mind and spirit to address your overall wellbeing, support healing and find balance in your life.
