Every person's path to healing and growth is different, and I believe in finding the approach that feels right for you.

Below are the areas where I specialise and the ways we might work together. Take a look through these areas to see what resonates with your experience, and remember, you don’t have to have it all figured out before we start.

Anxiety and Stress Management

Anxiety and stress are natural responses to life’s challenges, but when they start controlling your daily life, affecting your sleep, relationships, and ability to enjoy simple moments, it’s time to seek support. You don’t have to live in constant worry or feel overwhelmed by everyday situations. Getting help isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s a courageous step toward reclaiming your life and finding peace again.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You might find your mind racing with “what if” scenarios, feel your heart pounding in situations that don’t warrant it, or notice yourself avoiding places and activities you once enjoyed. Physical symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or difficulty sleeping might have become your norm. Perhaps you feel constantly on edge, have trouble concentrating, or find yourself snapping at loved ones when you don’t mean to. These are all signs that your nervous system is stuck in overdrive.
Together, we’ll use evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness strategies to help you understand your unique anxiety patterns. I’ll teach you practical tools to calm your nervous system in the moment and help you create space between yourself and anxious thoughts so they don’t control your decisions. We’ll work at your pace to identify your triggers and develop personalised coping strategies that actually work for your life.
Imagine waking up without that familiar knot of worry in your stomach, being able to make decisions without endless overthinking, and feeling confident in your ability to handle whatever comes your way. You’ll develop a toolbox of strategies that help you navigate stress without being overwhelmed by it, and you’ll rediscover the joy in everyday moments that anxiety may have stolen from you.

Burnout Prevention and Recovery

Burnout isn’t just feeling tired —it’s bone-deep exhaustion that touches every part of you: emotionally, physically, and mentally. This profound depletion often develops from prolonged stress, and it’s actually your mind and body’s protective way of saying “enough.” Please know that this isn’t a character flaw or something you should try to push through. Recognising burnout and reaching out for support is not only important for your current well-being, but it’s also one of the most caring things you can do to protect your mental health in the long run.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You might feel like you’re running on empty, going through the motions without any real engagement or joy. You might feel emotionally numb toward work that used to excite you, or notice that even small interactions with colleagues or loved ones leave you feeling completely drained. Physical exhaustion that doesn’t improve with rest, difficulty concentrating, and feeling detached from your achievements are all common signs. You might also notice increased irritability or feeling
We’ll approach your burnout recovery with deep compassion, understanding that this didn’t happen overnight and won’t be fixed quickly. Together, we’ll explore what led to this point—the patterns, pressures, and expectations that gradually wore you down. I’ll help you develop healthy boundaries, rediscover your values, and create sustainable practices that protect your energy while slowly rebuilding your connection to what matters most to you.
Recovery means feeling genuinely excited about things again, having energy for both work and personal life, and developing a sustainable rhythm that honors your needs. You’ll learn to recognize early warning signs and have strategies in place to prevent future burnout. Most importantly, you’ll reconnect with your sense of purpose and joy, feeling like yourself again.

Life Transitions and Adjustment

Life transitions—whether chosen or unexpected—can feel disorienting and emotionally challenging. Starting a new career, ending relationships, becoming a parent, losing loved ones, or any major life change can bring up complex emotions and questions about identity and the future.  I’m here to remind you that you don’t have to figure this out on your own, and there’s no “right” way to navigate these changes.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You might feel like you don’t recognise yourself anymore, questioning decisions you once felt certain about. It’s natural to grieve what you’re leaving behind while feeling anxious about what’s ahead, even when the change is positive. Sleep might be disrupted, your appetite might change, and decision-making can feel overwhelming. You might feel isolated, like no one understands what you’re going through, or like you’re stuck between your old life and new one without belonging fully to either.
I’ll walk alongside you as you navigate this challenging terrain, providing a stable, supportive presence while everything else feels uncertain. We’ll explore the complex emotions that arise during transitions, help you process any grief or anxiety, and work together to clarify your values and goals for this new chapter. I’ll help you develop resilience and coping strategies while honouring both what you’re leaving behind and what you’re moving toward.
You’ll feel more confident in your ability to handle change and uncertainty. Your sense of identity becomes more flexible and resilient, and you’ll have tools to navigate future transitions with greater ease. You’ll understand that growth often requires discomfort, and you’ll trust in your ability to adapt and thrive in new circumstances.

Schema Therapy and Changing Deep-Rooted Patterns

Sometimes our struggles feel frustratingly repetitive—we find ourselves in similar relationship dynamics, work situations, or emotional patterns despite our best efforts to change. These patterns often stem from early life experiences that shaped how we see ourselves, others, and the world. While these patterns once protected us, they may now be causing pain or keeping us stuck in ways that don’t reflect who we want to be.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You might notice yourself people-pleasing to the point of exhaustion, struggling with perfectionism that never feels good enough, or repeatedly ending up in relationships where you feel undervalued. Perhaps you find yourself avoiding challenges due to fear of failure, or you feel like you’re never quite worthy of good things happening to you. These patterns can feel automatic and incredibly difficult to change, even when you logically know they’re not good for you or not helpful.
Using Schema Therapy, we’ll explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, understanding how they developed and what purpose they once served. We’ll identify your specific schemas—those deep beliefs about yourself and the world—and slowly, carefully work toward developing new, healthier ways of being. This process is collaborative and honours the part of you that created these patterns to keep you safe, while creating space for who you want to become.
You’ll develop the freedom to respond to situations from choice rather than automatic patterns. Old fears and limiting beliefs will have less power over you, and relationships become more fulfilling as you learn to relate from a place of security rather than fear. You’ll also develop a deeper sense of self-acceptance and the ability to break cycles that no longer serve you.

Trauma-Informed Care and Healing

Sometimes life experiences leave invisible wounds that change how we move through the world, affecting our sense of safety and connection to ourselves and others. This is trauma, and it can be anything that left you feeling overwhelmed, powerless, or unsafe. There’s no experience “too small” or “too big” to deserve care and attention. Whatever way your trauma shows up, you deserve gentle, patient support as you heal, and there’s no timeline you need to follow—we’ll go at whatever pace feels right for you.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You might find yourself avoiding certain places, people, or situations that remind you of difficult times. Perhaps you feel disconnected from others or from your own emotions, or you have reactions that feel bigger than the situation warrants. Sleep difficulties, feeling constantly alert for danger, emotional numbness, or overwhelming feelings are all normal responses to trauma. You might experience intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, or feel like you’re watching your life from the outside. These are your mind and body’s ways of trying to protect you.
I’ll create the safest possible space for your healing, where you’re never pressured to share more than you’re ready to. We’ll work together to help you feel grounded and secure, developing strategies to manage difficult emotions and memories as they arise. I’ll support you in gradually rebuilding your sense of safety and personal power, always following your lead and honouring your timeline. Your healing journey is uniquely yours, and I’ll be there to support you every step of the way.
Healing means feeling more present and alive in your own life, having greater control over your emotional responses, and trusting in your ability to handle whatever comes your way. You’ll experience deeper, more satisfying relationships, better sleep, and a renewed sense of safety in the world. Most importantly, you’ll reconnect with parts of yourself that trauma may have hidden away, feeling whole and empowered again.

Self-Compassion and
Emotional Regulation

Living with intense emotions and a harsh inner critic can feel exhausting and isolating, like you’re constantly battling yourself. Whether your emotions feel too big to handle or that critical voice never gives you a break, these experiences are more common than you might think. You deserve to feel at peace with yourself and confident in your ability to handle whatever feelings arise.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
Your inner critic is loud and relentless, making you feel like nothing you do is ever enough. Emotions feel overwhelming and uncontrollable—you might explode in anger, shut down completely, or feel like you’re drowning in sadness. You judge yourself harshly for having emotions, which only makes everything feel worse.
Together, we’ll help you develop a kinder, more compassionate relationship with yourself while learning practical skills for emotional regulation. I’ll teach you techniques to observe and understand your emotions without being overwhelmed by them, and we’ll work on transforming that critical inner voice into a supportive inner guide. Our work here is not to suppress these emotions, but rather to learn to navigate them with wisdom and self-compassion.

You’ll develop genuine confidence in your ability to handle whatever emotions arise, knowing you have the tools and self-compassion to support yourself through difficult moments. That harsh inner critic will be replaced by a kind, understanding inner voice, and you’ll feel more emotionally stable and resilient in your daily life. Most importantly, you’ll treat yourself with the love and respect you deserve.

Mind-Body Connection and Somatic Symptoms

Sometimes our bodies speak what our minds haven’t yet found words for—stress might show up as headaches, anxiety as stomach knots, or overwhelm as tension in your shoulders. Your body is constantly communicating with you, and learning to listen to these signals can be incredibly healing.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You experience physical symptoms that doctors say are “stress-related”—headaches, digestive issues, muscle tension, or fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest. You might feel disconnected from your body or notice that emotions immediately translate into physical sensations. These symptoms can be frustrating and scary when there’s no clear medical cause.
We’ll explore this mind-body connection together, learning to understand what your body is trying to tell you. I’ll help you develop awareness of how emotions show up physically and teach you techniques to release tension and stress stored in your body. This might include breathing exercises, gentle movement, mindfulness practices, and other approaches that honour both your emotional and physical experiences.
You’ll develop a trusting relationship with your body and understand its signals. Physical symptoms become less frequent and intense as you learn to address emotional needs before they manifest physically. You’ll feel more grounded and connected to your body’s wisdom.

Sports and Performance Psychology

Whether you’re an athlete, performer, or professional facing high-stakes situations, the mental game is crucial for both performance and enjoyment. Performance anxiety, loss of confidence, fear of failure, or difficulty bouncing back from setbacks can make you question your abilities and steal the joy from activities you once loved. Having been a professional golfer myself, I deeply understand these unique challenges.
What This Might Look and Feel Like
You might experience anxiety before competitions or important presentations, have trouble sleeping before big events, or find yourself overthinking during performances. Perhaps you’ve lost confidence after a setback, struggle with perfectionism that never feels good enough, or feel like you’re not performing at your potential despite your training and preparation. The mental pressure can sometimes feel more challenging than the physical demands.
Drawing from both my professional experience and psychological training, we’ll work together to rebuild your confidence, develop mental resilience, and help you rediscover the joy in your performance. I’ll teach you mental skills like visualisation, focus techniques, and how to manage pressure effectively. We’ll also work on helping you rediscover the joy and passion that first drew you to your sport or performance area.
You’ll perform with confidence and enjoy the process, not just the outcome. Pressure becomes energising rather than paralysing, and you’ll bounce back quickly from setbacks. Your love for what you do will be restored, and you’ll have mental tools that enhance rather than hinder your performance.

Occupational Psychology and Workplace Rehabilitation

Sometimes our bodies speak what our minds haven’t yet found words for—stress might show up as headaches, anxiety as stomach knots, or overwhelm as tension in your shoulders. Your body is constantly communicating with you, and learning to listen to these signals can be incredibly healing.

What This Might Look and Feel Like

You might be experiencing anxiety about going to work, having trouble sleeping due to work stress, or feeling like you’re walking on eggshells in your workplace. Perhaps you’ve experienced bullying, harassment, or witnessed traumatic events at work that continue to affect you. Symptoms might include panic attacks, depression, difficulty concentrating, or feeling like you’ve lost confidence in your professional abilities.

With experience in occupational psychology, I understand the complex dynamics of workplace environments and the specific challenges of work-related psychological injury. We’ll work together to process what happened, develop strategies for managing workplace stress, and rebuild your professional confidence. I can also help you navigate the practical aspects of returning to work while protecting your mental health.
You’ll develop the resilience and strategies needed to navigate workplace challenges while maintaining your psychological well-being. Your confidence in your professional abilities will be restored, and you’ll have clear boundaries and coping strategies that protect your mental health while allowing you to thrive in your career.

Taking the first step toward change is not always easy—your decision to be here reflects a meaningful commitment to your wellbeing.
