I am a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist specialising in adolescents & adults. Formerly a high school teacher, I have a natural ability to quickly develop relationships with teenagers and specialise in complex issues often affecting adolescents and their families. These issues often recur in adult relationships affecting daily life. By processing and understanding the past, it opens up a way to be able to move forward & improve current relations. I am passionate about not just alleviating symptoms but helping you to understand and resolve patterns of behaviour. Working together, we determine goals and the direction of your therapy.
With a broad range of experience from education, health and welfare sectors, both locally & internationally, I offer long and short term therapy focusing on urgent issues that need attention, to working more deeply to recognise, understand & resolve recurrent patterns or themes. My interests include personality disorders, relationship issues & life changes.
Experiencing feelings of sadness, loneliness, anger and stress are normal. If these feelings persist longer than a week, or come and go frequently, you should contact me or your GP to discuss. Making the first phone call, or sending the email is always the hardest step. I provide a safe, confidential space to listen to your concerns and discuss options.

Working together, we will explore the root cause of your symptoms. Looking deeply at how and when it emerged, and how it has evolved. Working psychodynamically we will consider how your actions, thoughts and feelings might be unconscious. For some presenting symptoms, CBT, DBT and EFT may be helpful; developing strategies to manage at times of need while seeking to understand the onset.
