I have over 15+ years experience working in the treatment of trauma (Complex Trauma, Developmental/ Attachment Trauma), sexual difficulties (desire, arousal/ pleasure, orgasm, pain), body image/ eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, BED), relationship difficulties (e.g., communication challenges) and identity confusion (including gender and sexual identity, needs, likes and preferences).
I take a self-empowering, non-hierarchical, humanistic, and dynamic approach to therapy, incorporating techniques from Mindfulness and Somatic Therapies, Movement and Expressive Arts Practices, Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioural, Psychodynamic, and Insight and Acceptance Oriented Practices. One of my passions is in helping sensitive people with intimacy difficulties (re)negotiate their way, in an often insensitive world, into healthier forms of these kinds of relationships, using consent based, pleasure focused and embodied methods.
As a therapist, I work to provide a safe, supportive and empowering space, rooted in principles of transparency, authenticity, consent, and non judgement, where we can safely delve into the murky areas, explore struggles and build the skills and confidence necessary to make desired life changes.
