I am a queer friendly, trauma-informed accredited therapist based in Glasgow. I work with individuals, people in relationships, and groups, both online and in-person in Glasgow city centre. 

   As a person-centred therapist I work with clients to co-create an empathic, authentic and non-judgemental space in order to address the struggles, feelings and questions you may bring to therapy. I work in an open way that can include more creative interventions if you wish, but primarily I hope to facilitate you in exploring at your own pace. I am also trained to work somatically with trauma, which means, if you choose, we can work with felt sensations and movement in the body as an approach to process trauma.

   I work with a range of individuals and their experiences, including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, trauma, difficulties in relationships, questions regarding gender and sexuality, and feelings of blockedness. I am a GSRD and LGBTQ+ affirmative therapist, and I am familiar working with individuals in different relationship structures, including monogamous, non-monogamous, polyamorous and long-distance relationships, and I am kink affirming. I have undertaken placements at domestic violence charities and queer organisations. My approach is compatible with those working the 12 steps of recovery. Working authentically to my values is important to me and I am committed to working towards an anti-oppressive, non-discriminatory and accessible practice.

   In addition to seeing clients in my therapy room in Glasgow city centre, I also offer outdoor, nature-based therapy. I also offer therapeutic holding for group work and as an on-site therapist for creative projects.

   I am a BACP accredited therapist. I am also trained in myofascial release and I am a certified NADA practitioner. I am a member of Radical Bodyworkers Scotland and Person-Centred Therapy Scotland.
