HOW I WORK
Integrative, relational, and deeply attuned to who you are
MY VALUES
An inclusive, non-pathologising, neuro-affirming space
I am committed to working inclusively, with cultural humility, a neuro-affirming stance, and a non-pathologising approach.
This means I don't assume a single "normal" way of thinking, feeling, or being in the world.
Whether you are neurodivergent, hold a marginalised identity, or simply feel that mainstream spaces have never quite held you — you are welcome here, exactly as you are.
THE FOUNDATION
Healing happens through connection
I believe healing happens through connection — when you feel genuinely seen, understood, and met as you are.
At the heart of my work there is deep curiosity in what it means for you.
We all move through periods of emotional pain, overwhelm, or loss of direction. My role is to walk alongside you as we gently make sense of what's happening and create space for change, if that is what you long for.
Our relationship becomes a place where new perspectives can be explored and new ways of being in contact with yourself can be co-created — with curiosity rather than judgement, and with respect for your pace and boundaries.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
Active, cooperative, and embodied
Therapy with me is active and cooperative. Rather than simply talking about difficulties, we work together to make sense of your experience — attending to the body, emotions, and lived experience, not just thoughts.
Together, we explore healthier ways of coping with past and future distress — at a pace that respects your boundaries and strengths. You are never pushed further or faster than feels right for you.
This includes making sense of the protective strategies you may have developed — people-pleasing, perfectionism, emotional shutting down — and learning to relate to them with curiosity rather than criticism, so your vitality and expressiveness can gradually come back online.
MY APPROACH
IFS (Internal Family System)
Central to my integrative practice is Internal Family Systems (IFS) — a powerful model that understands the mind as made up of different "parts," each carrying its own feelings, beliefs, and protective roles.
IFS offers a compassionate framework for understanding why we think, feel, and behave as we do — and for building a more grounded, caring relationship with ourselves from the inside out
A central focus of my work is helping clients feel more attuned to their inner world — their thoughts, beliefs, emotional responses, and relational patterns. This awareness becomes a foundation for choice, flexibility, and self-trust.
ADDITIONAL MODALITIES
Alongside IFS, I draw on
I integrate and weave techniques according to what best fits your needs, history, and goals.
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): exploring links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviour.
CFT (Compassion Focus Therapy): developing self-compassion, especially where self-criticism runs deep.
DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy): building skills in emotional regulation and distress tolerance
Psychodynamic Exploration: exploring underlying emotional patterns and their roots in past experiences and relationships.
Polyvagal Exercises: supporting nervous system regulation through awareness, movement, breath, and connection.

FEES
Self-fundings, insurance, sliding scale
Individual session: £120 (50 minutes, online)
I offer a free 20-minute consultation before your first paid session, so we can check whether we're likely to be a good fit before any commitment is made.
Paying through insurance
I am registered with Bupa, AXA, Aviva, and Cigna. If you have private health insurance, you may be able to claim some or all of your sessions. It's worth checking your policy for any session limits, excess, or referral requirements before we begin — your insurer will be able to confirm the details. Please note that insurers do not cover late cancellations or missed sessions; these would need to be paid by you directly.
Sliding scale
I hold a small number of sliding-scale spaces for people who would otherwise be unable to access therapy. These are limited and depend on availability. If cost is a barrier, it's worth asking — and if I don't currently have a space, I'll do my best to point you towards another practitioner who can work within your budget.
