About me and my therapy practice
Real change begins with feeling safe and that鈥檚 where we start.
Many of the people I work with describe feeling 鈥渘umb,鈥� 鈥渙n autopilot,鈥� or 鈥渓ike I鈥檓 watching life happen.鈥� Others seem capable on the outside but feel anxious or lost inside. Our sessions offer a space to breathe, make sense of what鈥檚 been overwhelming, and begin to trust your own rhythm again.
I鈥檓 a trauma-informed, neuro-affirming counsellor offering online sessions across the UK and in-person therapy in Barnet and Camden. My approach is curious, collaborative, and grounded in real understanding.
You might have spent years holding things together, feeling disconnected, anxious or wondering why it鈥檚 so hard to relax or trust yourself. Maybe you鈥檝e experienced trauma, burnout, or relationships that left you doubting your own feelings. Have you had the feeling of difference, of being set apart.
Perhaps you鈥檙e neurodivergent, autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, newly or later diagnosed, and still exploring what that means for you. You might have learned to mask to get through, or be questioning whether a diagnosis would help. However you arrive, you don鈥檛 have to face it alone. Counselling can help you begin to feel like yourself.
Together, we explore what鈥檚 happening not only in your life but also in your mind and body by noticing patterns, sensations, and emotions so you can reconnect with yourself in ways that feel safe and real. If connecting to feelings feels difficult, that's okay, we鈥檒l start wherever it makes sense for you.
As a neurodivergent counsellor myself, I bring both lived and professional experience. I blend logic, theory, and understanding to help you find approaches that work for your brain and your life with the aim to make therapy accessible, meaningful and actually useful.
We鈥檒l work at your pace, following what feels possible for you, rather than a one size fits all approach.
If you鈥檙e ready to begin, I offer a free 20-minute consultation to see whether working together feels right.
