HELLO!
I’m an Occupational Therapist who supports people who look like they’re coping on the outside, but feel overwhelmed, exhausted or chaotic underneath.
Helping those who are struggling to switch off, sleep well, or regulate their emotions to feel calmer, more in control, and able to create ways of living that are more manageable and sustainable.
Drawing on my background in occupational therapy, sensory approaches, creative practice and a passion for helping people understand how the things they do can change and improve the way they think and feel, I offer space that is both reflective and practical. My work is gentle but purposeful, combining thoughtful challenge with strategies that can be integrated into everyday life.
I have a particular interest in sleep, emotional wellbeing, anxiety management, and life transitions. I am especially attuned to those who are used to pushing through or holding everything together for others, but are finding that this way of coping is no longer working.
Where helpful, I will weave in creativity and connection with nature including simple, hands-on approaches as a way to slow down thinking, process experience, and reconnect with a different pace.
With many years’ experience supporting people through complex challenges, I bring a calm, grounded presence and strongly believe that meaningful change comes not from doing more, but from learning to listen differently to what our bodies are communicating to us.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted or unable to switch off, you’re welcome to get in touch to arrange an initial conversation and explore whether this way of working feels right for you.
