Hey there, i’m Annie.

I support women who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, burnt out, or like they’ve been holding everything together for too long.

With over 15 years’ experience as a therapist, I offer trauma-informed, nervous system-based, integrative support — grounded in both psychological depth and embodied healing. My work blends psychotherapy, parts work, breathwork, body awareness, holistic massage and ritual. It’s gentle, relational, and shaped around what you need most.

My Approach

I work integratively, drawing on a range of evidence-based and body-focused approaches to support your individual needs. My aim is to meet you with warmth and flexibility, and to walk alongside you as you explore what feels difficult, tender or unknown.

Modalities I may incorporate into our work include:

Psychodynamic therapy – for exploring unconscious patterns, relationships and attachment

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – to support thought–behaviour awareness and emotional resilience

Transactional Analysis (TA) – to understand relational dynamics and inner roles

Internal Family Systems (IFS)/Parts Work – to gently meet and work with the protective and vulnerable parts of you

Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) – to build self-kindness, especially when your inner critic is loud

Polyvagal-informed practice – to support nervous system regulation and embodied safety

Somatic techniques, breathwork and holistic massage – to reconnect with your body and release stored tension
