How I can help……Anger
I work with anger and emotional regulation, particularly where anger is rooted in childhood and complex trauma. I also support individuals in navigating relationship difficulties that arise from intense or unresolved emotional responses.
Anger is not a flaw — it is a natural, protective emotion designed to signal boundary violations, injustice, and unmet needs. When anger was unsafe or punished in childhood, it often becomes suppressed, turned inward, or expressed in ways that feel out of control or damaging. My work helps clients understand how their anger operates, where it originated, and how to transform it into healthy assertion, emotional clarity, and grounded boundaries.
How I can help……Burnout
I work with burnout as a nervous system response to prolonged stress, unmet needs, and unresolved emotional strain.
Burnout is not a failure — it’s a signal. It often develops when ongoing external pressures collide with internal patterns shaped by early experiences, particularly developmental or relational trauma. For many people, the nervous system remains stuck in survival mode — always performing, bracing, and pushing — until it eventually shuts down.
My work helps clients understand how burnout operates in their body and nervous system, where these patterns originated, and how to restore balance through emotional regulation, boundaries, and self-compassion. Healing burnout isn’t about pushing harder; it’s about restoring safety, connection, and sustainable ways of living.
You’re not broken. Your nervous system has been trying to survive.
How I can help……Depression
Depression is common and often develops gradually. Rather than being a personal failing, it can be understood as a protective response. When someone has been under ongoing stress or emotional strain for too long, the nervous system can become stuck in survival mode. If rest and recovery aren’t possible, the system slows everything down. Depression can be the body and mind’s way of forcing a pause.
Depression may involve low mood, loss of motivation or pleasure, emotional numbness, fatigue, changes in sleep, or difficulty concentrating. Many people also withdraw from others — not because they don’t want connection, but because connection has felt unsafe.
For many, depression is linked to earlier life experiences, unresolved grief, and emotions such as anger or shame that couldn’t be expressed. Over time, these patterns can become internalised and maintain depression.
Depression isn’t just a chemical imbalance. With the right support, it can be understood and worked with gently, helping to restore self-compassion, regulation, and connection.
