I provide compassionate, strengths-based therapy for adults who are seeking help for various life challenges and psychological issues. Many people seek help for depression, worry, anxiety, trauma, stress or grief. Some have long-term difficulties in relationships, self-defeating beliefs or behaviours, and difficult emotions. My aim is to provide people with space to be heard, to help make sense of their difficulties, increase their self-acceptance, and to build skills to create the life they want to live. I appreciate the extra challenges faced by people in rural and remote areas, having lived and worked in some of these.
I use a range of evidence-based approaches which are flexible and uniquely tailored to individual needs. These include Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Phased Relationship-Based Therapy for Complex Trauma, Schema Therapy and Family Systems Theory.
We all experience challenges in life and it can be difficult to reach out for help. I provide a safe, confidential space where you can talk openly, and we work at your pace. You are welcome to contact me if you want to know a more about my service.

For longer term issues stemming from early life, I may use Family Systems or Trauma-Informed approaches. We look at the bigger picture - how your early experiences shaped your beliefs, feelings and relationships. Having a clearer understanding can help you start to break free of old life patterns. We work on many skills to help you feel safer, more grounded and to improve your relationships now.
