I am a psychologist (clinical) and a Compassionate Inquiry (CI) Practitioner. My work is grounded in CI and combines somatic therapy, Transactional Analysis, IFS, and other evidence-based psychological approaches to support people in understanding themselves and reconnecting with themselves with authenticity, self-acceptance, and choice.

My journey into psychology began with a personal crisis that led me to question the nature of human suffering and the patterns that shape our lives. I found myself asking: Why are things unfolding this way? What drives our behaviour? How might I be contributing to my own suffering? Those questions became the beginning of a search for understanding trauma, adaptation, and healing.

Around that time, I came across Dr. Gabor Maté’s work. His perspective resonated deeply with me and became an important source of inspiration.

Before becoming a psychologist, I spent over 20 years leading marketing for global technology organizations. Having lived & worked in high-pressure environments, I understand what it can cost to be endlessly capable and to keep achieving while slowly losing touch with ourselves. These experiences help me to meet people with humility, presence, and a genuine understanding.

Alongside my practice, I serve on the Board of Directors at the Coleen Cunningham Foundation, supporting awareness & research for Atypical Parkinsonism. I am also a writer & creative thinker.

I believe healing begins not by becoming someone else, but when we see ourselves with honesty and compassion.
