I currently offer online therapy sessions Monday to Friday, between 9:00 and 17:00 (CET). This daytime schedule allows us to work together when your mind and nervous system may be most settled and supported, rather than squeezing your emotional needs into the edges of the day.

Online therapy provides flexibility and privacy, and allows you to access support from wherever feels most comfortable, whether you're at home, travelling, or living abroad. Many clients find that meeting in a familiar environment helps them feel grounded and open during sessions.

Sessions take place via a secure video platform, and you鈥檒l receive a confirmation and link in advance. If you need to reschedule, I offer flexibility when possible, life happens, and I understand that sometimes things shift unexpectedly. My intention is to create a consistent, reliable rhythm for your work, while still honouring the realities of everyday life.

If you're unsure whether daytime sessions will work with your schedule, feel free to reach out, we can explore what鈥檚 possible together. My aim is to make therapy accessible in a way that supports your wellbeing and allows you to show up in a way that feels fully present, not rushed or overwhelmed.

Hello, I鈥檓 Catriona, a 网爆门-registered therapist. I support people who feel stuck in patterns of self-doubt, emotional responsibility, overthinking, and inner pressure to cope alone. Many of the people I work with come to therapy not because 鈥渟omething is wrong with them,鈥� but because they are tired of carrying everything themselves and repeating emotional patterns they can鈥檛 seem to shift.

Often, they have learned to be capable, caring, and thoughtful on the outside, while on the inside they experience:

Persistent self-criticism or self-doubt

A tendency to blame themselves when things go wrong

Anxiety or a constant sense of pressure

Negative internal dialogue or difficulty being kind to themselves

A habit of putting others鈥� needs first

Difficulty setting boundaries without guilt

Feeling overly responsible for others鈥� emotions

Confusion about their needs, limits, or identity

Patterns of codependence or unhealthy relationship dynamics

Perfectionism or fear of letting people down

Trouble trusting their own judgement or instincts

These patterns don鈥檛 usually emerge from nowhere. They often begin in environments where emotional safety wasn鈥檛 consistent, where caretaking roles developed early, or where someone learned that being 鈥済ood,鈥� helpful, or strong was the way to stay connected and avoid conflict. Sometimes the wounds are subtle and cumulative, having to grow up too fast, not being fully seen or understood emotionally, feeling pressure to please or perform, or learning not to take up space with struggles or needs.

My clients are not weak, they鈥檝e learned to survive through strength, sensitivity, and vigilance. But in adulthood, these same strategies can become exhausting. What once protected us can start to limit us. Therapy offers a space to step out of survival mode and into a more grounded, trusting relationship with yourself.

My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in the belief that change happens through safety, understanding, and genuine connection, not fixing, judging, or forcing. I don鈥檛 see you as a problem to solve, but as someone whose responses and patterns once made sense in the context you lived in. Our work is about helping you move toward a life that feels calmer, clearer, and more connected to who you really are.

Therapy with me isn鈥檛 about performing or having it all together. Some sessions may feel gentle and reflective; others might involve honestly exploring patterns that feel hard to shift. Both are welcome. We work at a pace that honours your nervous system, your limits, and your capacity.

Together, we may soften harsh self-criticism, explore emotions that were once pushed down, understand where self-doubt and people-pleasing began, reconnect with needs and boundaries, build emotional confidence, and strengthen self-trust. I pay attention not just to what you say, but how your body protects you, how you relate to vulnerability, and what feels safe or risky to feel.

Many people I work with grew up in environments where emotional needs weren鈥檛 fully understood; where worth felt linked to being capable, calm, or 鈥済ood鈥�; where mistakes felt unsafe and self-criticism became a survival strategy. Therapy isn鈥檛 about blaming the past, it鈥檚 about gently unlearning patterns that no longer serve you and building a more secure relationship with yourself.

You don鈥檛 have to carry everything alone or keep pushing through with self-pressure. This is a space where you can breathe, feel, and slowly return to yourself, not by trying harder, but by feeling safer to be who you are.

Before beginning therapy, we鈥檒l have a complimentary 20鈥�30 minute discovery call. This isn鈥檛 a therapy session, but a gentle space to explore what brings you here, what you鈥檙e hoping for, and how I work. It鈥檚 an opportunity for you to get a sense of me and ask any questions, and for us both to consider whether the fit feels right. A good therapeutic relationship is essential, you deserve to work with someone you feel safe with, understood by, and comfortable being yourself around.

During the call, I鈥檒l invite you to share a little about what鈥檚 been going on for you. There鈥檚 no pressure to tell your whole story or go into anything before you're ready. We鈥檒l talk about what you鈥檇 like support with, what feels important for you right now, and what you hope might change or feel different over time.

I鈥檒l also explain my approach, what sessions can look like, and how we would work together, including pace, boundaries, and what support might feel like in practice. You鈥檙e welcome to ask anything you need, whether practical or emotional.

This call is simply a starting point, a space to check in with yourself and notice whether you feel seen, at ease, and supported. If it feels like a good match, we can arrange our first full session. And if not, that鈥檚 completely okay. The aim is for you to feel empowered and informed in choosing the right therapist for you. Your wellbeing, comfort, and autonomy always come first.
