My Approach
At Karuna Therapeutic Services, my priority is that every therapy partner feels accepted, affirmed, and celebrated for who they are. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and it’s a privilege to walk alongside you as you explore, heal, and grow.
My approach is non-pathologising, neuroaffirming, somatic, and anti-oppressive. I have supported many people from marginalised and oppressed groups, and I’m committed to creating a space where you feel truly safe, seen, and supported — a space where you can show up as your full, authentic self, without the need to mask or explain.
I work integratively, drawing on somatic therapy, parts work, breathwork, and trauma-informed tools to support healing from the body up. Whether you're recovering from trauma, burnout, or the emotional impact of late autism identification, I’ll meet you where you are, gently, respectfully, and at your pace.
Therapy with me is collaborative and client-centred. I’ll always prioritise your needs, your goals, and your timing. I believe therapy works best when it empowers you to reclaim agency, choice, and self-trust. Together, we’ll work towards what feels most meaningful to you, whether that’s unmasking safely, processing trauma, building internal resources, or deepening self-compassion.
I also offer breathwork as a powerful adjunct to talking therapy. Breathwork can support emotional release, reduce stress and anxiety, and help reconnect you with your body in a way that feels safe and empowering. I’m trained in a range of techniques, and we can explore what works best for you, whether in one-to-one sessions or group settings.
In addition to individual counselling, I offer therapeutic parent support and training for families raising neurodivergent children. Parenting can be a profoundly rewarding yet challenging journey. I provide compassionate, practical support to help parents understand and nurture their child’s emotional and mental wellbeing with confidence and connection.
At the heart of everything I do is a deep belief in your inherent worth, self-knowledge, and the inner power you hold to create change. At Karuna Therapeutic Services, you’ll find a space rooted in compassion, respect, and the celebration of your unique journey — including all the parts of you that may have been hidden, overwhelmed, or silenced.
If you’d like to explore working together, please reach out to learn more about my services, or book a free 15-minute consultation through emailing me or using the Book Online tab. I’d be honoured to support you on your journey toward healing, reconnection, and growth.
