Life is challenging and unpredictable. When life throws you a curveball - it can be helpful to have an ally. An ally to help steer you back on the path. And help you realise your best self....

I provide schema coaching to fellow therapists and parents who want to focus on their own wellbeing and emotional health. I explore the lifelong schemas that cause stress at home and work: unrelenting standards, self-sacrifice, emotional deprivation, subjugation and approval-seeking. My clients come with a feeling of imbalance, wondering if they must sacrifice their own joy, mood and energy in order to succeed in their careers & relationships. I enjoy guiding my clients back to their true self, by being kind to themselves, and learning how to tolerate short-term guilt and interpersonal tension to achieve lasting contentment.

We can become stuck in unhealthy situations because unconsciously, the situation may mirror earlier childhood dynamics and thus 'feel' familiar. We seek the familiar because it's predictable, but this is not always healthy. When we are provided with the space to narrate our own personal history, we can begin to process the 'stuck' emotions attached and begin to heal. Please get in touch if you are experiencing difficult relationships, emotional abuse (coercive control, emotional abuse, etc, challenges setting boundaries/assertiveness, people pleasing), anxiety, stress, burn out, and challenges connecting to your own needs.
