About

I am a Counselling Psychologist with 30+ years of work experience with adult clients navigating significant life shifts and deeply held challenges. I offer a calm, consistent space to explore mood disorders, anxiety, and the lasting impact of complex trauma. We can also process addictions, including ‘co-dependency’ and complex life-changes and challenges such as divorce, burnout, relocation. My steady approach helps clients understand their experiences, fostering resilience and a clearer path forward. I keep the work practical and measured with an eclectic approach of therapeutic techniques and theories. We explore patterns of functioning, and we try small and realistic shifts that feel safe and useful. Therapy is collaborative in that we work together as a team. Personal development and improved self-care are important goals.
