I’m passionate about helping people who are longing for – or running from – change. I primarily work with clients who are dealing with problematic alcohol or drug use, affected by other people's addictions, experiencing anxiety or depression, or going through a significant life change. This includes ending a relationship or starting one, going through perimenopause or menopause, redundancy or retrenchment, changing careers, health issues – just to name a few. I also have lived experience in the creative arts and understand the pressure this work entails.
I offer a relational, trauma-informed, strengths-based and person-centred approach – a safe, kind and understanding place where you can explore what’s happening for you, without judgement. You decide what want to get out of therapy, as you are the expert on your own life. I will be there to support you all the way.
Whatever your hopes, dreams or goals are, I’m here to work with you so you can move towards to a life of purpose, authenticity and joy.
