I offer integrative therapy for adults and couples. Working integratively draws on different styles of therapy and responds to your personal process. That can involve creating change when something feels amiss, uncovering what lies beneath when you feel stuck or trapped in repetitive patterns, exploring and reflecting when you are confused or want to make sense of your experiences, and working with possibilities and new motivation.
My approach
Your needs and intentions for therapy are central to the personalised approach that I offer. Our relationship is collaborative; you are actively supported and have agency over your own development. Sometimes you may want space to talk and process, and other times I am more involved – I adapt to what you need each session, and we regularly review where you’re at.
I like to balance creative practices with structure, and the sometimes elusive process of therapy, alongside the desire for practical tools and progress. I also offer context on how therapy works and share psychological knowledge. This can include resources and handouts, if that’s something you like.
I work holistically and apply trauma-sensitive and neuroscientifically supported approaches for a broad range of issues. I can also include the body-mind connection using mindfulness and somatic tools.
I believe that the world we live in impacts our mental health. I consider our personal, emotional health as not separate from our bodies, nor from the health of our communities and planet. I also consider context, such as culture, identity, intersectionality, and the impact of the social, political and climate challenges of our times.
What I can help with
I can work with a broad range of people and themes, such as anxiety, grief, work-related issues, trauma, burnout, depression, and childhood experiences. I draw from lived experience and specialised training when working with the below. Please take a look at my website for more details.
Neurodivergence, ADHD & AutismIt can be challenging to navigate the many ways that neurodiversity may show up in your life. I am neurodivergent myself, and I have a particular interest in ADHD, autism and high sensitivity. I am late-diagnosed, and I know from lived experience how important it is to work with a therapist who understands how to adapt therapy to neurodivergent needs. We can focus on specific themes but are not limited to them; such as neurodivergent burnout, masking, self-trust, issues with motivation and taking intentional action, emotional processing, and how neurodivergence may impact your relationships and career. You can find more details on my website here.
Culture & IdentityI work with cultural sensitivity and questions about identity and belonging, including multi-hyphenated identities, being mixed-race, multi-linguality, and the role of ancestral trauma. I bring lived experience, being mixed-heritage myself, a ‘third-culture kid’, and having lived and worked across Europe, the UK, the US, the Middle East and Asia.
Relationships & CouplesI work with couples and specialise in relationships that navigate neurodivergence and/or mixed cultures and differences.
My background
I have lived and worked across Europe, the UK, the US, the Middle East, and Asia, and I am of mixed heritage.

I am a qualified Therapeutic Counsellor and Therapist, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
