Throughout my career, I have been drawn to the relational aspect of therapy, recognising that the therapeutic relationship is a powerful catalyst for change. I believe that a collaborative and empathetic approach is essential in fostering trust, understanding, and ultimately, lasting progress. My clients have come to rely on my active listening skills, emotional intelligence, and non-judgmental attitude, which allows them to feel safe and supported as they navigate their personal struggles. I take pride in my ability to establish strong therapeutic alliances, enabling me to tailor my approach to clients’ individual needs and goals.
I believe that effective therapy is not just about providing guidance or solutions, but about creating a space where individuals can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a meaningful and empowering way.
As a compassionate and empathetic therapist, I am deeply committed to promoting social justice and reducing health inequalities. I recognise that systemic barriers can prevent individuals from accessing necessary services, and I strive to work with marginalised and stigmatised populations, actively addressing issues of power and privilege in my practice.

As a systemic psychotherapist, rather than focusing purely on the 'internal world' of the person, my approach creates a bridge between 'self and context'. Therapy pays attention to people in the context of their lives, relationships, culture & environment; exploring the dilemmas and challenges these contain, as well as the possible strengths and resources.
