I am an MBACP Accredited Integrative Psychotherapist and EMDR practitioner, passionate about helping people navigate life’s difficulties and move toward greater emotional wellbeing.
My approach is warm and welcoming. I want you to feel genuinely seen and heard, held within a safe and non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever you need to at your own pace. Life’s challenges can show up in many ways: in our self-esteem, relationships, addictive patterns, anxiety, depression, attachment wounds, or the pain of separation. These experiences can shape how we feel about ourselves and how we move through the world. I believe that being genuinely seen, heard, and accepted is a powerful catalyst for healing and change.
Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing
EMDR is a gentle and structured therapy that helps the mind heal from difficult or overwhelming experiences. Sometimes when something stressful or painful happens, the memory doesn’t get fully processed, and parts of it can remain “stuck.” When this happens, we may continue to feel the emotional impact long after the event has passed — through anxiety, strong reactions, uncomfortable thoughts, or a sense of being on edge.
EMDR supports your brain in completing the natural healing process. You don’t have to go into great detail about what happened. Instead, we briefly bring the memory or feeling into awareness while using simple, calming techniques like eye movements or tapping. This helps both sides of the brain work together, allowing the memory to soften, settle, and become less charged.
People often notice that, over time, they feel calmer, more grounded, and less triggered by things that once felt overwhelming. The memory doesn’t disappear, but it becomes easier to hold — as though it finally belongs in the past rather than taking up space in the present.
Throughout the process, the focus is always on your pace, your safety, and your experience. My aim is to offer a warm, accepting space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as we work through what you’re carrying.
