Talking about emotional pain can be difficult, so I provide a warm, person-centred and safe space for individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, addiction, anger, uni/work stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.

I draw on CBT, Schema Therapy, ACT, DBT, CFT, and somatic approaches to help you make sense of your experiences so you can begin to shift patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
When things feel heavy, confusing, and harder to manage you might notice anxiety, low mood, or patterns that keep repeating despite your best efforts. I work with adults and older adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, eating and body image concerns, OCD, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and grief. Some people feel caught in unhelpful ways of coping, while others are managing the impact of significant life transitions. Therapy offers a space to slow things down, and make sense of your experiences, so we can work together to understand what’s happening and move forward to wellness.

I’m a general psychologist working with adults across a wide range of issues, with a special interest in perinatal psychology. I support women and parents before, during and after pregnancy who may feel overwhelmed, anxious, flat or depressed, or unlike themselves. Many experience intrusive thoughts, guilt, birth trauma, loss, or a sense that parenthood is not what they expected. Clients often seek relief from emotional distress, support with relationships, a better understanding of what they’re experiencing, and help to feel more grounded, confident and connected, without judgment.

You may be seeking support through individual therapy or by joining a small supportive group where you can feel safe, understood, and accepted. For some, this includes healing from trauma related to sexual violence, incest, or other forms of sexual, physical, or psychological abuse, which may still shape how safe the world and relationships feel. You may also be neurodivergent—living with ADHD, autism, OCD, or dyslexia—or navigating anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder and feeling misunderstood or exhausted from trying to meet expectations that do not align with who you truly are and needing a safe and confidential place.

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, insightful individuals who are used to holding things together — often for everyone else. Despite this, they feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that keep repeating. Some are navigating relationship challenges or life transitions, while others are in the perinatal period, adjusting to pregnancy, early parenthood, or fertility difficulties. They’re often seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and a way to feel more grounded, connected, and in control.

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.
