Therapy is a space where you can bring the parts of yourself that feel too complicated, too painful, or too confusing to carry alone. My role isn't to fix you — because I don't think you're broken. It's to work alongside you, with curiosity and without judgement, as we try to make sense of what's brought you here.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Psychodynamic therapy sits at the core of how I work. It's rooted in the idea that our past experiences, early relationships, and feelings outside of our awareness shape how we feel and relate to others today — often in ways we don't fully realise. This approach offers space to talk freely and begin making sense of patterns that may have felt stuck or confusing for a long time. It's less about quick fixes and more about lasting change through genuine self-understanding.

Humanistic and Person-Centred Values

Woven into my psychodynamic work is a humanistic and person-centred foundation. This means I place real importance on the relationship between us — the warmth, honesty, and safety of the therapeutic space isn't just a backdrop to the work, it's part of it. You won't be expected to perform wellness or say the right things. Research consistently shows that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is one of the most significant factors in whether therapy helps, and I take that seriously.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

I have also trained in CBT. Depending on what you bring, CBT techniques can be useful woven into the broader work — offering practical tools alongside deeper exploration — or as a more structured, standalone approach, particularly for difficulties like anxiety, low mood, or stress.

What This Means For You

You don't need to arrive knowing what kind of therapy you want. In our initial sessions, we'll think together about what might suit you best — and the approach may develop as the work unfolds.
