About me
My background is in psychology, and my approach is informed by CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and CFT (Compassion-Focused Therapy). In my work, I combine structured, practical techniques with a warm, compassionate style, helping clients build emotional skills, reduce overwhelm, and strengthen confidence in daily life.
As an expat myself, I understand the unique pressures of living abroad: adapting to a new culture, navigating uncertainty, feeling isolated, or questioning your identity and direction. I’m happy to support people in similar situations, offering a steady, non-judgmental space and tools you can use immediately.
I work gently, at your pace. Together we clarify what you’re struggling with, identify what maintains the problem, and practice strategies that support resilience, self-compassion, and real-life change.

Approach
I work in a structured and collaborative way. My style is warm and direct: we focus on what’s actually happening in your day-to-day life and build practical skills you can use between sessions.
I start with a clear assessment to understand your symptoms, triggers, and goals, and we agree on a treatment plan that feels realistic. I explain the “why” behind what we do, so therapy doesn’t feel mysterious or endless. Sessions are active and goal-oriented: we track patterns, test new strategies, and adjust based on what helps.
