My practice is grounded in Relational Transactional Analysis (TA) — a relational, humanistic approach to therapy that explores the patterns shaping how we relate to ourselves and others. Many of these patterns developed early in life and continue to influence us in ways we don't always recognise.
In our work together, we slow down enough to notice these patterns, understand where they came from, and explore how things might be different. This isn't about being fixed — it's about developing a clearer, more compassionate relationship with yourself and the people in your life.
My style is collaborative, unhurried, and adapted to you. I don't follow a script. I follow you.
My Approach
A particular sensitivity to cross-cultural life
I have a particular sensitivity to the experience of living between cultures — and to the questions of identity, belonging, and self that this can raise.
These experiences can be genuinely hard to put into words — especially with a therapist who hasn't lived them. I have. And that matters.
I offer therapy in English, French, and Japanese.
My international experience helps me understand the unique challenges faced by:
Expatriates and their families
International and cross-cultural couples
Third culture individuals
Professional migrants
Those navigating cultural transitions or re-entry
Training & professional memberships

What working with me looks like
Sessions are 50 minutes, held weekly or fortnightly depending on what works for you. We can meet in person in London or online — whichever feels most comfortable.
I aim to create a space where you feel genuinely listened to — where there's room for all of your experience, including the parts that are difficult to put into words. Our work is confidential, collaborative, and entirely at your pace.
