You may feel anxious, depressed, experience recurrent unhelpful relationship patterns, have a pervasive sense of discontent or just feel stuck. I can help you understand the history of your problems and learn healthier ways to relate to yourself and others. Whether you are dealing with unresolved early trauma, need help setting better boundaries in relationships, feel you don't quite belong, are underachieving, or cannot enjoy your successes, I can help you find solutions to your immediate issues, while also exploring how your previous life experiences affect your responses, relationships and self-perception.

I endeavour to help individuals improve their mental well-being. There may come times in life where we feel a sense of getting stuck, where our life's map going forward seems out of touch with our every-day experiences and feelings. At these times it can greatly help to have an ally who can genuinely listen, understand and accept things as they are in the life and experiences of another. This secure feeling of support can give individuals space to pause, breathe out and discover time to collaboratively seek for tools, insights and understandings with which to help clarify and calibrate their greater life's map.

Engaging in therapy can be challenging and it’s important to find the right person for you. Here is some information about how I work. My aim is to help people understand how, when and why their symptoms developed. I look not only at the individual, but also at the the family and social systems they have been a part of, and the experiences that have shaped them. I help people build skills to manage current challenges and also to heal deeper childhood wounds and traumas. I identify and work with the unique strengths and inner wisdom of each person.

I am a Registered General Psychologist experienced in working with a wide range of common adult mental health concerns in an open, sincere and frank manner, including anger management, depression, anxiety, stress, adjustment and obsessive compulsive disorders as well as various addictions (alcohol, drug, gambling, sex, internet) and recovery. As an older therapist, I bring decades of life experience into my counselling, with personal experience of many of the challenges facing clients, including trauma, grief/loss, sex/relationship and men's issues, workplace stress/bullying, hoarding, culture shock, parenting and adoption.

I bring four decades of experience in mental health, art, design. I work with individuals, couples, and family members who seek to change their relationships with themselves and others. I aim to open possibilities to people who have little hope for change, struggle with depression, anxiety, and trauma symptoms, feeling overwhelmed and lost. This is often accompanied by counterproductive soothing behaviours such as substance use, addiction to gambling, gaming, sex, or screen use. Further, some clients may stay in relationships that deepen their belief that they cannot become the agents of their own lives.

Feeling disconnected from yourself, your life and the people within it? Its okay, it's human to feel lost at times. I work with individual's over 18 who are looking to explore the intricacies of their internal and external worlds to deepen understanding of self and life, to strengthen connection to self and community. This includes exploring the heavier more uncomfortable and at times painful feelings such as anxiety, dissociation, depression, rage and grief. We create space for feelings so they aren't so heavy, before harnessing them to move you towards your community, your purpose and your sense of "wellbeing".

You used to be driven, but now you don't even recognise yourself. You feel isolated, ignored, and utterly exhausted. A newfound impatience is taking its toll on your relationship with your partner and children. Have you wondered when this began or why it is impacting you so heavily? You might have been reading about stress due to motherhood or menopause, but that doesn't mean you have to accept it. You long to retake control of your life, but you're uncertain where to begin.

I am a clinical psychologist who works across a variety of presentations including anxiety and mood disorders. I hope to bring a warm, empathic and authentic approach to the issues that people bring to therapy. I recognise the investment that people make when they share their difficulties with someone and commit to therapy, and work to honour that commitment by delivering evidence based treatments, that are tailored to a persons needs. I’ve benefitted greatly from the experience of working across a range of inpatient and outpatient hospital settings.
