Hi there. People come to counselling for so many reasons; maybe they're navigating traumatic memories/experiences, difficult feelings, the complexities of belonging & identity, or their relationship with drugs &/or alcohol. Maybe they feel the strain of trying to navigate systems or a world that seems to be falling apart. Whatever you're holding, I'm here to hold them with you in a gentle space that carries all parts of you & your story. I walk with people who may be navigating systemic oppression, complex trauma & addiction, substance use concerns, as well as neurodivergent, LGTBQIA+, mixed-cultural & BIPOC experiences.

I work with kind, intelligent, and reflective individuals who, despite their outward achievements, feel trapped by unhelpful patterns and past experiences. My clients often feel a sense of being lost, broken, or tainted. They may struggle with chronic self-doubt and the belief that they are not worthy of a fulfilling life. They are looking to move from a place of simply surviving to a life of meaning and purpose.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been deeply drawn to people’s unique stories - their inner worlds, turning points, and quiet transformations. My professional practice is informed by a blend of evidence-based psychological approaches and years of extensive training, and the insights I’ve gained from my own life journey.

Many of the men and couples I work with are living with anxiety, burnout, loneliness, intimacy concerns, or relationship challenges. Some are navigating identity changes, open relationships, desire differences, or questions around belonging. I support gay and queer men and LGBTQIA+ couples to strengthen their mental health, build confidence, and deepen connection with themselves and each other. My approach is sex positive and kink aware, grounded in consent and emotional safety. Our work focuses on understanding what is getting in the way, easing shame, and creating steadier, more meaningful ways of relating.

I work with people who may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain, and who are seeking more than a quick fix. Often, they are thoughtful, sensitive, and curious about themselves and their relationships, with a sense that there is something deeper to be understood. They may be struggling with recurring patterns, emotional pain, or difficulties that feel hard to explain. In our work together, I offer a steady, reflective space to explore these experiences, supporting greater self-understanding and the possibility of meaningful, lasting change.

I think it can be healing to be given a space with someone who wants to sit with you through challenging thoughts, emotions and experiences and offer understanding. I work with adults who are experiencing difficulties with issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, grief and loss, identity issues, anger management, low self-esteem, coping and adjustment issues, parenting issues, well being and self care.

Do you feel stuck in the same relationship patterns - whether you’re in a relationship or single? You might feel drawn to unavailable partners, stuck in the same arguments, or choosing people who can’t meet you emotionally. These patterns are changeable, and therapy is where that shift begins.

Life can be challenging, and sometimes our thoughts become the hardest part to manage. I help people untangle these patterns, strengthen emotional resilience, and find long-term calm. With master’s degrees in Communications and Media and in Professional Psychology, I bring a balanced mix of human insight and clinical skill. My approach is grounded, collaborative, and inclusive of all identities and backgrounds, drawing from Schema Therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic frameworks. I recently explored this in my blog When I Asked ChatGPT to Be My Therapist on The Three Seas website.

I am a Clinical Psychologist and Board-Approved Supervisor working with adults experiencing anxiety, stress, trauma, burnout and workplace challenges. I often work with thoughtful, capable individuals who are used to coping well but find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck or burnt out. This may relate to demanding roles, relationship difficulties or significant life transitions. Many are used to being the one others rely on and are now looking for space to step back, make sense of what is happening, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence and practical strategies.
