• London-trained psychotherapist | Inclusive online therapy worldwide

    A warm welcome to you

  • Therapy | Relational & Inclusive Therapy for Meaningful Change

    When life feels difficult, speaking to someone can help you make sense of what you are struggling with. We all have the capacity to grow and heal, yet it is completely normal to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or without options sometimes. If you are struggling, you deserve a safe, supportive, and confidential environment to process your thoughts and feelings.

    Together, we will work to move your life in the direction you want. I help you explore how past experiences might be creating a template for how you live today. My practice is deeply neurodiverse-affirming and welcoming of all backgrounds. I specialise in supporting gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD), ensuring you feel entirely seen and respected for who you are.

    How We Work Together: Relational Therapy
    I work relationally, which means the collaborative relationship we build is a core part of our therapeutic work. Often, how you connect with me can offer valuable insights into how you relate to others - and yourself - in your daily life. I will help you develop deeper self-understanding so you can break old patterns and live in a way that feels truly authentic.

    Issues I Can Help You With:

    • Anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and low mood
    • Relationship issues and interpersonal dynamics
    • Identity exploration, including gender, sexuality, and GSRD
    • Neurodivergent support (ADHD, autism, and neurodiverse-friendly space)
    • Feeling stuck, lost, or hopeless
    • Life transitions, changes, and endings
    • Bereavement, loss, and grief

    What You Can Expect in Our Space:

    • Empathy & Warmth: A gentle, compassionate approach to your pain.
    • No Judgment: Complete safety to explore your truest self.
    • Potency & Depth: Active, meaningful engagement to help you move forward.
    • Professionalism: High ethical standards, confidentiality, and dedicated care.

  • About Me | Qualified Humanistic Psychotherapist & GSRD Specialist

    I am a qualified humanistic psychotherapist, psychotherapeutic counsellor, and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). As an integrative therapist, I combine multiple therapeutic modalities to ensure our work together honors your individuality, respects your unique pace, and supports your personal growth.

    I specialise in working with gender, sexuality, and relationship diversity (GSRD), providing a deeply safe, affirming, and respectful space for LGBTQIA+ and trans individuals. My intensive, specialised training reflects my commitment to offering culturally competent, informed, and compassionate care to the community.

    My Journey & Therapeutic Philosophy
    Before establishing my global online private practice, I spent several years as a volunteer counsellor with Mind, the leading UK mental health charity. Today, I support clients across the UK, Europe, and worldwide. Having lived internationally myself, I offer a professional, personable approach that is highly attuned to the nuances of expat life, cultural transitions, and global living.

    My previous career and academic background in law deeply enrich my therapeutic perspective. It brings a sharp, practical awareness to themes of equality, power dynamics, systemic oppression, and individual difference. Together, we will explore your life experiences in a meaningful, empowering way that honours your authentic self.
