I’ve always loved water, perhaps because it reminds me of how human we are. We can be still, restless, overwhelmed, flowing, stuck, or somewhere in between. And none of those states have to last forever.
I come from a humanistic lens, which means I’m listening to you as a person, not just the elements that brought you to therapy. I’m here to listen to what you’ve been carrying, understand the world through your eyes and gently help you make sense of it, at a pace that feels right for you.
Over the years, working with people from different walks of life has taught me that there is no single way to be human or find your way forward. My hope is that our sessions can feel like a place where you don’t have to have everything figured out before you arrive.
Outside of therapy, I find myself drawn to the same things that remind me to slow down and be present. Be it photography, music, mindfulness, being around water and noticing the little joys that are easy to miss in everyday life. I think these things have also shaped the way I see people with curiosity, presence and an appreciation for the small moments that make up a life.
Sometimes, you may need to swim. Sometimes, you may need to float.
You don’t have to know which one you need before you come in.

FAQs
Why did you choose to become a therapist?
I think I became a therapist because I’ve always been curious about people, the stories we carry, the things we don’t say out loud and the little moments that shape who we become. Over time, I realised that being able to sit with someone in the middle of their uncertainty, without rushing towards an answer, is something people deeply value. Therapy, to me, is not about telling someone how to live their life. It is about walking alongside them for a while, helping them understand their own waters a little better and trusting that they can find their way through.
