custom routes with profile page

I have a profile page which I can see if I go to my name /tessa but I can't work out how to link to this. My routes.rb at the moment just says get '/:id', to: 'profiles#show'

but on the view, how do link_to "my profile", x ?

I've tried <%= link_to "My additions", profiles_show_path(id: current_user.id) %>

Thanks

Solved it!

<%= link_to "My additions", myprofile_path(id: current_user.profile_name) %>

Hope this helps someone...
