About me and my therapy practice

At the heart of my practice is a gentle, creative, and trauma-informed approach that honours the whole person鈥攎ind, body, heart, and spirit. I offer a compassionate, grounded space where you are invited to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and explore what鈥檚 ready to emerge. My approach is collaborative and responsive, shaped by your needs and the pace that feels right for you.

Drawing from my training in Transpersonal Arts Counselling at the Tobias School of Art and Therapy, I use creative processes鈥攕uch as drawing, movement, or writing鈥攖o help you access and express feelings that may be difficult to put into words. These creative tools are not about being 鈥済ood at art,鈥 but about accessing deeper insight, healing, and connection to self.

My work is also deeply rooted in trauma-informed embodiment, mindfulness, and psychosomatic practices. I bring over a decade of experience, including specialist work in eating disorders, domestic and sexual abuse, and displacement. I support both children and adults, with a particular focus on working with women navigating trauma, life transitions, or a search for meaning and integration.

Together, we create a space where healing becomes possible鈥攁 space of permission, presence, and possibility.

Practice description

My practice offers a warm, creative sanctuary for those seeking healing, reconnection, and a deeper sense of wholeness. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or navigating something painful or complex, you are welcome here.

Using a transpersonal and arts-based approach, I support clients to explore their inner world through image-making, body awareness, breath, and mindful presence. These processes can bring clarity, emotional release, and reconnection鈥攅specially when words are not enough.

I currently work online and will be offering in-person sessions in Newhaven from September 2025. I draw from a wide range of experience, including working with eating disorders, trauma recovery, domestic and sexual abuse, and displacement. My additional training in trauma-informed yoga, Reiki, and psychosomatic practices allows me to meet clients with sensitivity and attunement, offering tools to support nervous system regulation and embodiment.

I primarily work with women, children, and young people, and hold a deeply respectful and non-judgmental space. Every person I work with brings their own story, and I honour that by tailoring each session to your needs鈥攚hether that鈥檚 through quiet reflection, creative exploration, or simply being witnessed in a safe space.

If you're curious to begin or continue your healing journey, I鈥檇 be honoured to walk alongside you.

My first session

I offer a free 20-minute introductory call where we can briefly discuss what brings you to counselling, answer any questions you may have, and explore whether working together feels like the right fit. Following this, I will ask you to complete a short questionnaire to help guide our initial work.

Our first full session will be a space to begin gently exploring what you鈥檙e hoping to gain from counselling. We'll go over the therapeutic contract in line with 网爆门鈥檚 ethical framework, which includes confidentiality, session structure, and mutual expectations. This session is also an opportunity for you to get a sense of how I work鈥攗sing both talking and creative, arts-based methods as appropriate. There鈥檚 no pressure to engage with the arts right away; the work unfolds at your pace, and your comfort is key. We鈥檒l co-create a safe and supportive environment where your personal process can begin to unfold.
