Many clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected and are seeking greater emotional wellbeing, resilience, and clarity. Together, we explore the factors contributing to distress, build on strengths, and develop practical strategies that support healing, growth, and meaningful change.

Life can present many challenges and can sometimes bring exposure to unexpected events with profound impact and ongoing echoes. In my 30 years of practice as a psychologist I have held a passion for supporting individuals attempting to traverse life’s difficulties with particular attention to those who have experienced trauma. Trauma comes in many forms and from many sources and its impact and pathway toward healing is as individual as the person making this journey. I am experienced working with individuals with PTSD including Emergency Service Personnel.

My ideal clients are adults who are navigating grief, loss, and significant life transitions- whether through bereavement, aging, caring for a loved one, or cultural adjustment after migration. Many come to me feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure how to process what they're experiencing. Some are carers quietly carrying emotional weight; others are reassessing identity and purpose after a major change. I work individually with each person, offering a steady, non-judgmental space where they feel truly heard. Together, we explore what's beneath the surface, build emotional clarity, and move toward greater self-understanding.

I have a genuine respect for people and the complexity of what they carry. I value the opportunity to sit with you, understand your experience, and work alongside you through periods of challenge, uncertainty, and change. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, relational difficulties, and emotional regulation challenges. I’m drawn to the moments in therapy where things begin to shift, when patterns become clearer, when someone feels truly heard, and when small changes start to open up something larger. At the heart of my work is a genuine love of people.

I draw from Internal Family Systems, Trauma Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, existential, and polyvagal-informed approaches to help you feel safe, understood, and supported.
I help adults heal from trauma, grief, and life transitions in a space that is safe, grounded, and genuinely human. Many people reach out when anxiety feels louder, loss feels overwhelming, or unhelpful patterns keep repeating. Therapy offers a place to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and work toward depth, clarity, healing, and a more satisfying way of living. Together, we combine practical tools with thoughtful exploration so change feels steady, meaningful, and sustainable.

You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. I offer a warm, reflective space where we can explore anxiety, trauma, burnout, grief, identity, and life's challenges at a pace that feels right for you. I work with adolescents and adults who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Together, we'll make sense of your experiences, explore what lies beneath them, and find new ways of moving forward - through conversation, and when helpful, through art-making.
