Experience

As a former humanitarian aid worker, I bring insight into the challenges faced by those working in demanding and high-stress environments. My professional journey has equipped me with a strong understanding of resilience, trauma, and the unique pressures of frontline work. Now, as a psychotherapist, I specialise in supporting humanitarian aid workers and anyone seeking support, offering a safe and empathic space to process your experiences and strengthen your wellbeing.
