Every client is unique, so I tailor my approach to meet individual needs. I ensure my work remains person-centred, with a commitment to adapting therapy styles as needed. Although my core methods include Transactional Analysis and Gestalt Psychotherapy, I also integrate a wide range of therapeutic tools to enhance outcomes.

Moreover, I’ve worked with individuals from many different backgrounds.

I continuously aim to support clients in achieving long-term healing and growth.
