My priority is to cultivate a safe, inclusive, and accessible environment. I prioritise informed consent on an ongoing basis and I value direct and honest communication. I am here for you through life transitions, processing trauma, exploring your gender, sexuality, and neurotype, navigating relationships, grieving/accepting a new diagnosis, dealing with change, building sustainable routine, verbally processing your week, career changes, cultivating self-compassion for yourself, and more. I want to help you to be kinder to and to get to know all the parts of yourself.  The clients I work with tend to be long term clients, who want more than just a few sessions of strategies.

I work with clients with a broad array of presentations, including:

• Neurodivergent brains (ADHD, Autism, OCD, bipolar, dissociative disorders, C-PTSD, etc.)

• Gender dysphoria, and those who want to explore their gender or sexuality

• Chronic illness and pain (POTS, Long Covid, ME/CFS, EDS, HSD, MCAS, fibromyalgia, and more)

• Trauma, including C-PTSD, difficult family relationships, relational conflicts, PTSD, disociation, and more

• Anxiety, depression, and grief

• Burnout, PDA, self-compassion, unmasking, executive dysfunction

I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), and Schema therapy. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is available to clients who see me weekly or fortnightly. I love EMDR, and I’m happy to provide psychoeducation on what this process is like if you’ve never experienced it. I alter therapeutic modalities to ensure they are neuro-affirming, which means we can be flexible with the modality we use and how we use it to ensure it’s a good fit for how your brain works. I prioritise the therapeutic relationship and ensure I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet your individual needs and goals (irrespective of neurotypical standards).

My sessions are client led, meaning there is no required agenda of what we “have to do”. During therapy, I enjoy looking at the different "parts" that make us up, noticing where in the body sensations arise (and staying with these feelings/sensations as they arise), and exploring your past and present with gentleness and curiosity. I adjust my therapeutic approach for those who struggle with visualization, alexithymia, autistic burnout, chronic pain/illness, dissociation, and PDA. Ultimately, you are in charge of session content, and we will tailor each session to suit your needs. I encourage you to tell me if something doesn’t work for you, so we can not do that thing again! Similarly, I love to know what’s going well, so we ensure that remains a consistent part of our sessions.
