I work with adults and older adolescents experiencing chronic stress, anxiety, depression, panic, and sleep disruption, as well as those living with chronic health conditions, burnout, and neurodevelopmental diagnoses (including ADHD and Autism). Many are managing strain across work or study, relationships, and daily functioning, often alongside patterns of sustained effort, high standards, and self-reliance. While effective in the short term, these patterns can become difficult to maintain, contributing to exhaustion, disrupted sleep, reduced capacity, and difficulty with decision-making or maintaining momentum.

I provide individualised, evidence-based therapy for adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families, drawing on CBT, ACT, Solution-Focused Therapy, IPT, DBT skills, mindfulness, and EMDR.
Many of the people who come to see me are individuals who have been carrying a lot for a long time. They may be living with anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, or depression, feeling stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand, or navigating major life transitions and relationship or parenting challenges. Often, they are looking for more than coping and healing — they want to feel understood, make sense of what they’ve been through, and move forward with greater confidence, and control over their lives. Therapy becomes a space to slow down, address root causes, build practical skills, create meaningful change that supports wellbeing

Are you feeling anxious, stressed, confused, emotionally overwhelmed? Does life seem overwhelming, unfair, sad, unfulfilling, directionless, hopeless? Is your relationship in distress or not as fulfilling as you’d like? You’re not alone. I endeavour to understand what is important for you, which means that I don’t have a one-size-fits-all approach. Using empathy and non-judgement, I listen to understand what life is like for you and to ‘get’ you - what you are thinking and feeling, how the events of life have impacted you, and what you want and need. I create a safe space to be open and real about what you are experiencing.

People come to me because they’ve never felt fully understood in mainstream services, as they identify as LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, or from refugee and multicultural backgrounds. I counsel people of all genders, as well as those in non-traditional relationships such as polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, Kink/BDSM communities, and sex workers. I support clients who feel deeply, are easily triggered, are navigating life with trauma, think differently, or live at the intersection of multiple identities — including those with mental health diagnoses, as well as couples and families seeking a space where their complexity is understood.

Dialectical Behaviour (DBT) Therapists
Who is DBT for?
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) is designed for people who experience extreme emotional suffering because they lack the skills of emotion regulation and distress tolerance. The basic affliction can underlie a wide range of conditions, from borderline and other personality disorders to PTSD and treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The therapy is helpful to those whose emotional reactivity is so intense it is disruptive to everyday functioning and leads to frequent crises.

Why do people need DBT?
The ability to regulate emotions is a core psychological skill that enables people to function in life and pay attention to the world outside themselves; it is consistently associated with well-being. DBT is designed to help people learn how to manage and regulate their emotions. Originally developed to treat people with borderline personality disorder whose extreme emotional suffering led to self-harming behaviour and suicide attempts, the therapy is now applied to other conditions involving emotion dysregulation, particularly when other treatments have failed.

What happens in DBT?
Individuals meet weekly with their therapist to discuss their experiences relating to moods, behaviour, and skills. Using checklists they maintain, they review emotional experiences and positive practices they engage in. The diaries help individuals discern what led up to a specific problem encountered, this is followed by discussion of the consequences of their actions. In addition, individuals may meet in class-like small groups to learn skills such as mindfulness, emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

How long does DBT last?
Because it is intended to establish long-lasting behavioural change among those with persistent problems, DBT is designed to last six months to a year. DBT includes both weekly sessions of individual therapy and weekly skills-training sessions conducted in small groups. Studies of DBT have documented improvement within a year of treatment, particularly in controlling self-harmful behaviour; nevertheless, individuals may require therapy for several years.
