Human health is deeply shaped by systems of power and oppression. We’ll work together to examine how your identity, shaped by various intersecting social factors, impacts your experiences and well-being. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your agency and finding strength in your unique voice, while navigating and pushing back against oppressive systems.

Human experience naturally includes moments of ease and moments of suffering, shaped by attention, habit, attachment, and care. In this work, mindfulness and loving-kindness support a gentler, more honest relationship with what is present, including discomfort, uncertainty, and change. Over time, this can reshape how suffering is held, soften reactivity, and cultivate greater steadiness, compassion, and clarity in daily life.

Human wellbeing is shaped by the quality of our relationships, access to support, and the conditions of the communities we move within. In this work, we’ll draw on understandings of love as an active practice of care, responsibility, honesty, and mutual regard. Over time, this perspective supports greater capacity for connection, repair, and shared care, without idealising community or overlooking the realities of power, difference, and harm.

Life is complex and beautiful, and part of our work will be embracing both its joy and its pain with courage and awareness. This approach helps you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, clarify your desires, and confront the profound questions of existence. Together, we’ll explore how to make decisions that align with what you truly value, finding meaning and purpose even in the face of uncertainty.

Distressing or traumatic experiences can continue to shape sensation, emotion, belief, and meaning in the present, even when the original events feel distant or difficult to name. These experiences are held within memory networks that influence how the nervous system organizes safety, threat, and connection. In this work, gentle bilateral stimulation supports the brain’s natural capacity for adaptive information processing, allowing these memory networks to integrate more fully over time and supporting greater coherence, flexibility, and choice.

We all carry different inner responses shaped by experience, protection, and adaptation, including ways of coping that developed to help us stay safe and connected. In therapy, we gently get to know these responses with curiosity rather than judgement, which can reduce inner conflict, soften self-criticism, and create more choice in how you respond to stress, relationships, and uncertainty. Over time, this work can support emotional regulation, greater coherence, and meaningful change without forcing or suppressing any part of your experience, unfolding at a pace your nervous system can trust.

Our brains and emotional health are shaped by our relationships. Neuroscience shows that empathetic, secure connections can actually rewire the brain, improving emotional regulation and resilience. In therapy, we’ll explore how your relationships, both with yourself and others, affect your mental health and how nurturing supportive connections can help you heal.

Our lives are shaped by the stories we inherit, absorb, and tell about ourselves, our relationships, and the worlds we move through. In this work, we’ll explore how these stories have been shaped by experience, culture, power, loss, resilience, and care, and how they influence identity, meaning, and choice. Over time, this creates space to loosen stories that feel limiting or incomplete, and to strengthen narratives that better reflect your values, complexity, and lived reality.

Our brains and nervous systems are shaped through experience, relationship, stress, rest, and environment across the lifespan. Part of our work will involve paying attention to how patterns of protection, emotion, attention, and connection become wired through repetition, and how they can gradually shift through safety, regulation, and new relational experiences. This perspective supports change that is paced, embodied, and sustainable, helping people build greater flexibility, resilience, and choice without forcing the nervous system into states it is not ready to hold.

Trauma can be transformative. Experiences of disruption or adversity can shift how people relate to themselves, their relationships, and what carries meaning in their lives. In this work, we’ll stay attentive to the ways change can unfold alongside grief, uncertainty, and ongoing vulnerability, without framing growth as an expectation or an achievement. Over time, some people notice greater clarity, resilience, connection, or a renewed sense of direction that feels authentic and self-defined.
