I believe in the power of connection, embodiment, and self-exploration to transform lives. My therapeutic approach is holistic, collaborative, and non-pathologizing. I’m here to guide you towards self-acceptance, awareness, and empowerment on your path to understanding and growth. If you feel disconnected and stuck or are looking to make significant changes, I can help. Life is complicated, but having someone on your side makes a difference. Let go of old patterns and embrace a new understanding of yourself. Whether you seek a deeper connection with yourself or with your partner, I'm here to support you.
I am passionate about supporting people on their path of exploration and healing. I am deeply committed to creating an emotionally safe, non-judgmental, and nurturing space for individuals and couples. Trained in EFT, IFS, and Gestalt, I offer a relational approach to support your healing and understanding of yourself and others.
If you're feeling alone in life's struggles, let's untangle those knots together. Let's help you to navigate life with choice, rather than feeling powerless. Whether it feels overwhelming or isolating, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I feel that Dara can hold and make space for whatever I bring her. In happy times and hard times, she can be with me in the most supportive, heart-felt, not try to fix it but instead just understand me, kind of way. Her insights are valuable and heartfelt!
