I am a trauma-informed integrative psychotherapist credentialed in the United Kingdom. My therapeutic approach draws upon current trauma therapies, mindfulness practices and attachment theory. I have 4 years of professional work experience within the charity sector, the public health service as well as in my private practice. I have experience working with younger adults who are struggling with a variety of mental health issues including, but not limited to, stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, perfectionism, feelings of being stuck and relationship issues . I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and will tailor our work to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
