She aims to help people tell their story differently and take steps toward the life they want.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Existential therapy focuses on meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps people facing big life questions, grief or major changes by naming what matters and exploring how to live with uncertainty.Client-centred therapy puts the person at the centre of the work. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what they hear and helps people find their own solutions and strengths for everyday problems.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers clear techniques to reduce anxiety, improve mood and change unhelpful habits through practical exercises.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and may combine approaches over time in a collaborative way.
Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth conversations; phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited; chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or health needs.
