Using trauma-informed, neuro-affirming approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT and EMDR, I help you make sense of your experiences and build strategies that fit your life.
I am a psychologist and clinical psychology registrar who supports adults — often professionals and parents — feeling pulled in every direction by stress, anxiety, burnout or perfectionism. Many are neurodivergent, including women diagnosed later in life, navigating work, parenting and relationships while managing overwhelm, sensory sensitivities or challenges with focus and organisation. I provide a space where your experiences are understood, validated and respected.

I take a relaxed and collaborative approach to therapy and aim to create a space that feels warm, supportive, and genuine. Some people come to therapy with a specific issue they want help with; others are looking to understand longer-standing patterns in themselves or their relationships. I work both short-term and longer-term, and tailor therapy to what feels most helpful. My focus is on creating a safe and honest space where change can unfold at a pace that feels right.

My work draws from ACT, CBT, CFT, EFT, mindfulness and emotional regulation skills.
Being human can be complicated. We carry old stories, grief, family patterns, cultural expectations, relationship wounds, anxiety and the pressure to keep going, often without realising how deeply these experiences shape the way we think, feel and relate to ourselves and others. I work with individuals and couples who want to understand themselves beyond surface-level coping. Therapy with me is a space to make sense of what feels tangled, put language to experiences that have felt difficult to explain and create relationships and ways of living that feel more honest, connected and sustainable.

Choosing a psychologist is a big decision, and I suspect you've thought about this for a while. You know that therapy is an investment in yourself, and you don't make investments without doing your research. You are looking for someone you feel safe and comfortable sharing your most difficult thoughts and feelings with. You want someone to listen carefully, to respect you and your experience and to be invested in your goals providing support that is specifically tailored to who you are (otherwise you'd just be buying a self-help book). That's what you deserve!

I use an integrative approach, combining ACT, Schema therapy, DBT, CBT, mindfulness and drawing on somatic practice and IFS principles.
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.

I believe all people have an innate capacity for wisdom and, with this, a natural capacity for healing. I aim to empower people by supporting their connection to this inner wisdom while gently addressing the barriers that may limit access to it and prevent them from living a full and enriching life. Many people experience difficulties related to unresolved issues from the past, stressful relationship dynamics, work-related challenges, self-defeating behavioural patterns, and self-critical ways of thinking. Psychological counselling can help to develop insight, build on your strengths, and support meaningful and lasting change.
