Hello! I’m a friendly, down-to-earth person with experience in private practice & health settings helping people understand/manage stress, anxiety, depression, panic, relationships, chronic illness & trauma. I've also worked for Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) supporting people through organisational change, career change, workplace stress, bullying, unemployment & redundancy. I've also worked with veterans/first responders with physical/mental injuries & PTSD. Before becoming a psychologist, I was a project manager in corporate/government/not-for-profit for several yrs & have extensive work/life experience as a result.

Most people start therapy feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to put their thoughts/feelings/experiences into words. Some people like a practical approach & learning strategies they can use straight away, while others prefer taking time to explore & make sense of things first, before feeling ready to take the next step. That's completely okay!

You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting or even be certain that therapy is right for you. I provide a warm, non-judgmental space for people to learn new skills & to better understand themselves/others while being encouraged & empowered to move forward with strength & confidence. Book a free 10 min session if you'd like an informal chat!

I work with people who are experiencing challenges in their work or personal lives, or who simply need a safe place to pause and reflect. In our initial sessions, we'll identify goals and create a plan to work towards them at your own pace. We'll work together to explore thoughts, feelings and experiences, to understand any barriers, and to identify strengths to empower you to move forward.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
