About me
IMG_2685.jpeg

I am a relational psychotherapist and relational life therapist, and my work has developed over more than two decades of being alongside people in the layered, often tender terrain of their inner and relational lives.

I began my training in counselling and human change, but very quickly found myself drawn beyond frameworks and methods into something more immediate — the living experience of relationship itself. The moments where connection is lost or defended against, and the quieter places underneath where longing, fear, and hope sit together.

Over many years I have also been immersed in mindfulness, meditation, yoga, and somatic practice, and these have become inseparable from how I work. They shape the way I listen and the way I stay with experience — through the body, through breath, through what is sensed as much as what is spoken. My earlier work in physical theatre continues to inform this orientation, especially an attention to presence, gesture, and the unspoken language between people.

 

Relational Life Therapy eventually became a central framework in my practice, alongside a wider relational orientation, because it named something I had long been working with: the way we carry patterned ways of relating that form outside of awareness, and the possibility that these patterns can be met and transformed in real relationship.

 

What has remained constant is a trust in the possibility of change when there is enough honesty, attention, and care. I see therapy as a collaborative space rather than an intervention. I work in partnership with my clients, supporting them to begin trusting their own wisdom again — the quieter knowing that is often obscured but never entirely lost.
