My Belief

I believe we each carry within us the potential for a life rooted in meaning, connection, and vitality. Yet at times, hardships or unexpected turns can leave us feeling lost, stuck, or far from ourselves.

A few things to know before we start

The Therapy Process

My role 

Therapy is a space where you don’t have to do it alone.

I really believe in the power of a meaningful and authentic bond between myself and the people I work with, and I will give precedence to the quality of the relationship we build together. I’ll bring my full presence to our time together, and I invite you to do the same, in your own way and at your own pace.

This is a collaborative journey - we are a team. I believe you are the expert in your own experience, and my role isn’t to hand you quick answers or fixes. I’m here to support you in discovering your own insights and choices. And trust me, they’re in there somewhere – together, we’ll gently uncover them.

The space is yours to shape, and you decide how we use our time. At the same time, I’ll always stay attuned to what you need. I’m flexible and responsive in how I work - whether that means bringing an occasional more directive and challenging quality to the process, or simply offering a place to breathe, reflect, and explore while I sit alongside you.

Some aims of therapy

  • To process and heal old wounds, make space for what hurts, and begin to reconnect with the world around you

  • To deepen your awareness and understanding of yourself - with kindness, curiosity and compassion

  • To make sense of your experiences and how they’ve shaped the way you move through life

  • To notice and gently untangle patterns that no longer serve you, creating space for more conscious, flexible, and resilient ways of being

  • To reflect on the choices available to you, and explore what moving forward might look like

  • To reconnect with parts of yourself that may have been pushed aside – helping you feel more whole, more grounded, and more you.

How Change Happens:

  • Change is a gradual process, where you can enjoy the journey of becoming.

  • Every small step matters and deserves to be celebrated. It’s not about an instant miracle cure but about moving forward in a way that feels real and lasting.

  • Lasting change comes through self-acceptance, not by pushing yourself to be someone else or trying to ‘fix’ who you are.

  • You have an inner healer – therapy helps clear the path for it and bridges the gap between who you think you should be and who you truly are

  • Research consistently shows that the most important factor in meaningful change is the therapeutic relationship – and that’s where I come in.
