Grounded psychotherapy for real people, in real life.
A down to earth space for healing. Rooted in the belief that growth happens when we feel safe and seen, guided by compassion, curiosity, and the wisdom of nature.
Approach
Working from a person-centred, trauma-informed perspective. This means you are always met with respect, empathy, and care — at your own pace. Our work might gently incorporate mindfulness, somatic awareness, through bottom-up processing.

Inclusive by nature
I welcome all identities and relationship structures with openness, and without assumption. Whether you’re exploring aspects of your identity, navigating transitions, or simply seeking a therapist who sees and honours you as you are — you are welcome here.
This is an inclusive and affirming space where all experiences are respected and valued. Equity, diversity, and inclusion are at the heart of my practice — including neurodiversity, 2SLGBTQIA+ identities, and the richness of all cultural, racial, and personal backgrounds. I am committed to creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. I stand as an ally and continue to learn, unlearn, and grow in service of holding space with care and integrity.
