Science-based Psychotherapy
A Safe Space to Be Seen, Heard, and Understood.
Every person's journey is unique, filled with its own contours and shades. If you find yourself struggling with challenges in life, it can feel overwhelming, impacting your daily life and relationships. I deeply understand the weight of these experiences. You are not alone. In a supportive and non-judgemental environment, guided by science-based practices and personalised care, we can navigate these challenges together. My goal is to work towards emotional stability, improved relationships, and effective stress management, empowering you to embrace your journey and cultivate a life of fulfilment and peace.
I specialise in relationships and interpersonal issues, depression, social anxiety and sex-related problems, with a special interest in loneliness. I offer a holistic and eclectic approach, integrating various therapies to tailor treatment to your unique needs and helping you develop effective coping strategies.
Understanding your struggles deeply matters to me. Together, in a safe and empathetic space, we can carefully explore and address the challenges you are facing. I am committed to providing the support and guidance you need. If you are ready to take the first step toward healing and personal growth, I am here to walk that path with you.

Skills-building (e.g., problem-solving, emotion regulation).
