About me

As far as anyone knows you feel like yourself inside your body, but deep down you know that this is not true. As far as I know, the only inhabitant in your body is you and so, only you could know what it's like to live in it. My mission is to help people in their adulthood heal their relationship with food and bodies. However you may be feeling inside your body, you deserve the space to process it and give that relationship another chance. Together we will work on the anxiety around eating and appearance, and/or feeling alienated and dissatisfied with your body.

Therapy for me is a journey to self-knowledge, acceptance, and choice that we can all embark on. I genuinely believe that no human being needs �fixing� as there is nothing broken about them. What my clients realise early on in their therapy journey is that the relationship they have with their bodies is an extension of the relationship they have with themselves as a whole. Once they start transforming that relationship into a more compassionate, loving one, they figure out this translates into how they move and feel inside their skin.
