About me

From Scotland / the UK, I spent my 20s working in corporate consulting, where I lived and worked in multiple countries - France, Spain, Russia, Netherlands and Germany.

I eventually burned out and started going to therapy myself. Therapy helped me enormously during very challenging stages in life. I fell in love with the process of self exploration and decided to retrain as a therapist myself. It’s a privilege to now be qualified in this field and pass the gift forwards to support others.

I hold a safe, calm and non-judgemental space for you to unpack and understand yourself. Together, we find a balance between the structure of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and the natural flow of a integrative approaches considering your entire constellations of mind, body and soul.
