My background in linguistics and Latin American studies has shaped the way I think about how we come to understand ourselves - through language, culture, different relationships and the environments we move through.
That curiosity is part of what drew me to psychotherapy. I'm particularly drawn to early patterns around closeness, trust, belonging, and how we see ourselves. They can show up again in adult relationships, often in the very things we most want to change.
Therapy has been part of my own life too. That experience gave me something that training alone can't - a real sense of what it means to be genuinely seen and how much can shift when that kind of space exists
In our sessions, I offer a space to slow down and turn attention toward your own experience - which can feel unfamiliar if you're more used to focusing outward (on others' needs) than inward (on your own).
We work with thoughts, feelings and what’s happening in the body, as well as the patterns that tend to emerge when things feel difficult. The aim isn't to become someone different. It's to come into fuller contact with yourself - with more clarity, more steadiness, and a clearer sense of choice in how you live and relate.
I hold a postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy from the Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education (CCPE) and am a registered member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).
