About Me

I hold an MA/Advanced Diploma in Integrative Relational Psychotherapy from the Minster Centre in London and have been a practising therapist since 2016. Before that, I studied Literary Studies & Philosophy as an undergraduate at the University of Toronto. More recently, I trained in oral storytelling at the International School of Storytelling in East Sussex, working with traditional tales, autobiographical narrative and world myth. I have a long history of asking big questions and thinking deeply about the stories we tell… and the ones we don’t.

I work as a psychotherapist in private practice and in diabetes care at Royal United Hospitals, Bath.

I am of dual heritage and come from multiple generations of migration. I grew up in the USA and lived in Canada before coming to the UK in 2005.
