Finding your path to mental wellness shouldn't be a journey you take alone. I believe that true healing happens when we create space for both understanding and growth, recognising that each person's experience is unique and deserving of compassionate, individualised care. With over a decade of specialised experience in mental health nursing across acute care, community settings, and forensic environments, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of evidence-based, person-centered treatment.

Sometimes life feels harder to carry than it once was. You may have been managing for a long time, doing your best to keep going, while something, sometimes not even obvious, underneath has become increasingly difficult. Maybe you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted or just not your usual self. You may not even be sure what you need, only that you'd like things to feel better. But you know what? You don't need to have everything worked out before reaching out. Sometimes it helps just to have somewhere to begin: a place to slow things down, make sense of what's been happening, and find a way through that feels right for you.

I work with people who appear to be functioning well on the outside but privately feel stuck in patterns they can't seem to break. This might include gambling, compulsive online behaviours, burnout, perfectionism, or recurring cycles that affect relationships, work, finances, or self-confidence. I have a particular interest in working with men in their 20s to 40s who are looking for practical, grounded support and a fresh perspective on challenges they've often been carrying on their own.

Waitlist for new clients
Compassion for the human condition and the premise that we are not passive victims of our circumstances but have freedom to choose how we want to be, are the main foundations I work with. I believe that we all possess the natural self-healing capacity that is seated in the deep center of our being, and I see psychotherapy as the work of finding, unlocking and opening doors through which healing can flow, and seeds towards transformation can be nurtured. I also approach all the suffering and pain that clients present, as an opportunity to use the crisis for personal growth and as a pathway to a deeper connection with the true self.

Welcome - I am a Clinical Psychologist providing in-person and telehealth services, with over 25 years of frontline experience as a Police Officer, Detective, and United Nations Peacekeeper. I work with people who are used to carrying responsibility, pushing through stress, and looking after others before themselves. Often, they have spent years managing pressure quietly; work, partners or as fathers, before reaching a point where stress, anxiety, burnout, anger, sleep problems, trauma, or emotional exhaustion begin affecting daily life. I provide a practical global evidence based approach to therapy and a good dose of humour.

I provide practical, evidence-based psychotherapy for adolescents, adults and couples.
Has alcohol, drug use, gambling or pornography begun affecting your relationship, mental health, finances or future? Perhaps trust has been broken, arguments repeat, or you feel caught between wanting to change and not knowing how. I work with individuals and couples seeking more than symptom relief: recovery for the person and healing for the relationship. You may also be facing depression, anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, court concerns or pressure at work. Therapy can help you understand the pattern, regain control and begin rebuilding what matters.
