I work with clients across the life span and from all walks of life. People come to me because they feel stuck, depressed, alienated, conflicted, lost, unfulfilled or curious.

They hope to cultivate their self-understanding and to nurture their heart in order to find more ease and a deeper sense of belonging with themselves, their loved ones and the wider world; so as to live a life of joy and connection.
