Feeling stressed, anxious or low frequently? Needing some support to get through a tough patch in life? Coping with mental health challenges can be an invisible struggle, and family and friends support can only go that far. That's when speaking to a counsellor can be helpful, to provide an objective, non judgmental listening ear.
I'm an accredited and registered counsellor with over a decade of experience. I also possess a warm and non-judgemental perspective that comes from lived experience of being a carer to family with mental health conditions. My approach is strengths-based, empowering people to feel confident to make choices for a needs-satisfying life.
My approach is warm, authentic, present, gently challenging with a sprinkle of humour. If that sounds like a good fit for you, reach out today with a call and find out more.

My main framework of choice is a mix of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Choice Theory Reality Therapy. Where appropriate, I also use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) for specific types of issues relating to trauma and negative core beliefs.
