I am a postgraduate qualified clinical counsellor and PACFA Clinical Member with a special focus on couples and individual therapy. I help people deconstruct the patterns that drain their energy—whether that is relationship conflict, anxiety, perfectionism, or depressive loops.
I provide a non-judgmental environment where the focus is never on blame, but on understanding the mechanics of why these loops keep repeating and how to actively fix them.
My approach combines warmth with structured, evidence-based strategy. For individuals, my practice is guided by ACT and IFS frameworks to map out the internal habits running the show. For couples, I utilise the Gottman Method and EFT to decode repetitive conflict.
Ultimately, true progress happens when your day-to-day actions align with what matters most to you. Our sessions function as a transparent, collaborative partnership designed to strip away the guesswork, lower the underlying tension, and give you a clear, practical map forward.
