My approach is based in Adlerian and Feminist theory.
There comes a time when we realise our past patterns and tools aren't helping us move forward in life. My goal is to provide you with the space and guidance to explore how your patterns of behaviour, past trauma, and experiences formed the person you are today. We will work together to explore past patterns, build healthy coping strategies, and strengthen resilience. Whether you’re looking to explore past experiences, build concrete tools to cope, or build healthy relationships with your loved ones, I provide an individualised, trauma-informed approach to therapy to adapt to your unique needs.

Grief is a natural response to loss, which may include a range of emotions such as sadness, anger, guilt, longing, and often involves adjusting to life without the presence of what or who has been loss. Grief is also a highly individual experience, with no set timeline or "right" way to grieve. However, if you are struggling to cope with your loss, I am here to guide you through your journey of grief, helping you navigate the complex emotions, coming to terms with loss and finding ways to integrate it into your life. Formerly working in funeral service and community outreach, I have spent over 10 years helping people in distress.

Do you feel like your anxiety rules your mind and you have no control? You may constantly battle racing thoughts, struggling to focus, and feeling restless about various aspects of your life. While striving for excellence and witnessing others' success, you're often left feeling anxious, inadequate, and behind. Even when you perform well and receive praise, you still doubt your achievements, feeling unworthy or as though there's more you should be doing. It is incredibly challenging for you to communicate your feelings and needs to others because you feel guilty asking for help and fear you may burden others. But there's a way out.

Adlerian Counsellors
How does Adlerian psychology work?
In the framework of Adlerian therapy, people are motivated by a sense of belonging and community, which drives them to surmount feelings of inferiority so as to contribute to their society; fulfilling these desires can help people flourish. Adlerian therapy proceeds in four stages—engagement, assessment, insight, and reorientation—in an overall effort to understand the client’s past and to achieve their present-day humanistic goals.
Is Adlerian therapy humanistic?
Yes, Adlerian psychology is humanistic; it focuses on the whole person, emphasises their strengths rather than just their symptoms, and centers them in determining how they can grow and flourish. This school of thought informed the work of Abraham Maslow, who went on to develop humanistic psychology.
How long does Adlerian therapy take?
Adlerian therapy is a short-term, goal-oriented form of therapy that takes around 15 to 20 weekly sessions. Of course, some people may be in therapy for a shorter or longer time frame; length depends on the individual and the problem or condition they wish to treat. Clients can ask their therapist about the timeline for treatment before they begin and check in periodically to ensure that they’re on the same page in terms of progress.
Is Adlerian therapy evidence based?
There is not as much evidence to support the effectiveness of Adlerian therapy as there is for other types of therapy such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy. But Adlerian therapy may be the right therapy for some people—whether they’re seeking to treat mental disorders or achieve self-growth—especially those looking for a holistic approach that emphasises relationships, community, self-worth, and purpose.
