How I work
My work begins with lived experience — what it is actually like to inhabit your world. Together, we look beneath familiar patterns to explore what is really going on: the assumptions you carry, the ways you protect yourself, the choices you make, and whether they are helping or constraining you.
I work in a relational way, shaping the therapy as it unfolds. This keeps the process alive and responsive for both of us, and asks for engagement and honesty over time. While my training is existential, I integrate other approaches I have studied, allowing the work to respond to you rather than follow a fixed model.
I am cautious about defining my work in terms of specialisms. My approach is concerned with getting underneath experience — with how you are inhabiting your world — and in that sense the work is not fundamentally different across different areas of difficulty. In practice, I have worked with people bringing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and depression, faith and spirituality, sexuality and identity, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.
I work with adults in individual therapy, offering both in-person and online sessions. Some people choose to work over a longer period of time; others prefer a more focused piece of work within a specific window. I am open to co-creating an approach that feels appropriate for you. I welcome people of all backgrounds, races, genders, and sexualities, and I am deeply committed to creating a space where whatever you are working with can be brought openly and taken seriously, without judgement or assumption.
