About

My Style

My approach is body-aware, relationally focused, and respectful of spiritual life. I pay attention to what your nervous system is saying alongside what your words convey.

Before Our First Session

Before our first session, there is no expectation to share more than feels right. We build trust at a pace that suits you.

I Am Best With

I am best with clients navigating family loyalty and personal growth simultaneously — those who want change without erasure.

Referrals Welcome

I welcome referrals for couples in cultural transition, intergenerational conflict, and faith-sensitive counselling.

I Refer Out For

I refer out for severe eating disorders and active psychosis.

Outside the Practice

Outside my practice, I photograph desert architecture, practise calligraphy, and volunteer with refugee resettlement programmes.

What Shaped My Practice

Living across three countries and two languages taught me that belonging is not about choosing one identity — it is about integrating all of them.
