I work with women who are experiencing feelings of anxiety, loss or who are finding their new reality challenging. I work with women who have a voice inside their head that critcises and judges them. I work with women who are trying to conceive, are pregnant or who are already parents. I am experienced working with women and couples who are committed to pursuing their dream of having a family via IVF. I am passionate about helping parents manage the trials of parenting and create secure attachments to their young children.

My therapeutic style is warm and relaxed and I create a space where you can feel understood, accepted and empowered. I draw from a number of treatment modalities including Positive Psychology, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (I’ll explain this psych speak during our sessions!).
I work with clients who have found that life can be tough at times. My aim is to act as your cheerleader, the person who is going to support you to play the cards that life has dealt you with wisdom and grace. By adding some important strategies to your toolbox of coping skills, you can be more present and do what matters most to you.
