I’m a compassionate, evidence-informed counsellor who creates a confidential, non-judgmental space where individuals and couples can explore life’s challenges, regain emotional balance, and build meaningful momentum toward the life they want. I work collaboratively with adults, young people and couples across a range of concerns including relationship conflict, anxiety and stress, trauma, and life transition. Blending warm, empathetic support with practical tools from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, schema work and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. My approach is grounded in respect, curiosity and partnership.
I use evidence-based frameworks, particularly Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Gottman-informed couples work. I have a particular interest in understanding how unmet emotional needs, attachment wounds, and learned coping strategies shape present-day thoughts, behaviours and relationships.
Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially when you’ve been carrying stress, hurt, or relationship struggles for a long time. I offer a calm, non-judgmental space where you can slow things down, feel understood, and work toward meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.
