” Do not let your past steal your present”

Free 30 minutes initial consultation. Email me to book.


Is your life affected by past trauma, adversity, neglect or abuse?
Do you feel stressed, anxious, burnt out or lacking self-esteem, without understanding why?

Therapy with me can help you understand your past trauma, how it affects you in the present, and how to discover new ways of living a more balanced, peaceful and fulfilling life.
Trauma informed therapy asks “What happened to you?” instead of “What is wrong with you?”
