I love what I do... I love helping people discover a deeper purpose and a more meaningful life experience. As a psychologist, I offer therapy that honours the inner world and emotional integration — rooted in psychological science and embodied practice. 

​​

You may be functioning well on the outside — responsible, capable, reliable — yet internally feeling stretched, stuck, or carrying more than you can name.

Perhaps you are navigating:

• Ongoing stress or burnout

• Life transitions or identity shifts

• Relational patterns that repeat

• A sense of disconnection from yourself

• Emotional overwhelm that thinking alone doesn’t resolve

​

Over my years of practising, I have distilled my niche and therefore offer integrative, nervous system-informed therapy for thoughtful, capable adults who want embodied understanding, not just intellectual insight.​

​

My Approach

My work integrates:

• Nervous system regulation

• Somatic (body-based) awareness

• Reflective psychological depth

• Mindfulness-informed practice

• Evidence-based therapeutic frameworks

Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we explore patterns — gently, at a pace your nervous system can sustain. This is therapy that supports both insight and embodied change.

​

I believe in our innate ability to grow, to expand our experiences of life and to thrive. In today’s fast-paced world, overload and overwhelm are becoming the norm of the day, and distract us from our own intuition and what we know about ourselves.

[My services are not for those with significant (severe) mental illness, if you are in crisis, or if you need a formal psychological assessment or diagnosis. I can refer you to colleagues who specialise in these areas.]
