People come to see me for a lot of different reasons. For instance, you might be experiencing depression or anxiety, having relationship difficulties (whether you're single or partnered), going through a major life transition or loss, or wondering about the overall direction of your life. You may have a sense that there's something more to life -- that you could be living a richer life, and thriving more than you are right now. I'm here to support you and examine what's working and not, whether you're seeking a major transformation, or simply a deeper understanding of your life patterns.

Feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Putting your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Wondering if life should feel better and happier? Many people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how to manage their relationships, careers, and lives now more than ever. Ignoring your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. I believe that living a better life shouldn't be so hard.

Sometimes we don't know exactly what we need help with, but we know something needs to change. You might feel anxious or sad without an obvious explanation; or have a desire to improve your self-esteem, or get over a painful break-up. You may have experienced trauma. Using a collaborative and empathic therapeutic approach grounded in evidence-based practice, I support you to make meaning of the feelings and thoughts that contribute to psychological and emotional distress. We work together to find new, adaptive ways of being that improve your quality of life, create positive coping habits, and break unhelpful relationship patterns.

Sexual or relationship concerns can be difficult to talk about and may negatively impact our emotional well-being and mental health. Often people tell me they have not felt comfortable discussing sexuality with other therapists and seek me out to explore issues of concern without judgement. As an accredited psychosexual therapist and mental health social worker I have worked for nearly 30 years supporting people to improve their sexual and interpersonal relationships, manage depression, anxiety, low self esteem, body image issues, sexual pleasure post trauma, grief, loss, communication difficulties and other concerns.

Through different stages of life women have expectations placed on them, often intensified by our life experiences & the narratives we learn about ourselves & others. Resulting in stress, anxiety, depression, a sense of not belonging, or not being good enough. In our relationships with family, children, friends, at workplaces & in community we can be challenged, stretched & deeply depended on. I want to support women to feel connected to themselves, each other & have the tools to find joy, kindness & balance in life. Since becoming a mother, I have a passion for supporting women during postpartum to prioritize their own wellbeing.
