I support couples and individuals in understanding their relationships more deeply and creating meaningful, lasting change. Drawing on my training in the Gottman Method, I help couples improve communication, manage conflict more effectively and rebuild trust and connection when things feel strained or distant. My approach is both practical and compassionate. I offer tools and strategies you can use in everyday life, while also creating a non-judgmental space where each person feels heard and understood. Together, we work at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on your unique strengths and the challenges you're facing.
After watching 'Hope Springs', in a scene between the couple and their therapist, I remember thinking, “That’s what I want to do.” I enrolled in a Master of Counselling and began my journey into relationship therapy. I went on to complete Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the Gottman Method, I feel deeply grateful to be doing work that truly aligns with my passion.
I bring warmth, curiosity, and respect to every session. I understand that every relationship has its own story, its own challenges, and its own strengths. Whether you’re just starting out, navigating the transition into parenthood, adjusting to life as empty nesters, or celebrating decades together, I would be honoured to walk alongside you.

I work with clients who may be struggling with their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a healthy way that makes a difference. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use The Gottman Method in my practice. However, I bring tools in from many other sources too. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress.
