This ignited a passion to help others on their journey toward emotional freedom and personal growth. With a background in business and further studies in neuroscience, positive psychology, and international human rights, I found myself drawn to the intersection of science, compassion, and human connection. Becoming a psychotherapist allowed me to combine these interests, using evidence-based methods to empower clients and help them break free from limiting patterns.

I soon realised that this was the path I wanted to take.
