I am deeply passionate about working with intersectionalality, minority group experiences, LGBTIQ+, gender and neurodiversity.
Do you feel overwhelmed, exhausted or struggling with motivation? Do you have sensitivities that leave you feeling judged by others, or misunderstood? Do you experience stuck patterns of behaviour that effect your ability to feel satisfaction in life and in relationships? Do you feel pressure to conform to societal norms and expectations, which leaves you feeling "othered" and isolated? I see you! You are not alone and you don't have to work this out by yourself. Together we can explore your lived experience and the many ways it impacts your sense of self, worthiness and belonging.

Life can be challenging sometimes and we all need a little help to navigate through difficult times. In life we go through lots of emotions. Many emotions we handle it in our own way however some time some emotions can be triggering and could be very difficult to handle and it might lead us to feel more pain and sorrow, depressed and unmotivated. It starts affecting our mental as well as physical health. It starts affecting relationships and leave self feel void. However if we understand the core issues of the pain we then can learn to deal with our emotions and live peacefully.

It can be hard to talk about what's going on for you, whether you're going through a difficult time, struggling to understand yourself, feeling unsure of your path forward, or generally feeling overwhelmed with life. Connecting with someone you don't know can feel daunting, especially if you've had tough experiences in the past. Having someone you trust to keep the most vulnerable parts of you safe can be immensely healing.

I am a Counselling Psychologist, and have experience working with clients across the lifespan. I work with adolescents, young adults and adults to help them in understanding themselves and others. Deciding to access counselling is often a big decision and it can take a while to find a psychologist that you feel safe, comfortable and at ease with, someone "who really gets you" so to speak. I am able to work with clients who are experiencing mild to acute mental health issues and have experience working in a more acute inpatient setting.
