I am a registered psychologist, clinical supervisor and psychoanalyst having completed many years of additional training and personal analysis to offer treatments. My treatment approach is based in lacanian psychoanalysis, which is a once-and-for-all process dealing directly with what causes suffering including anxiety, depression, relationship issues and addictions. Anxiety encompasses a spectrum of thoughts and experiences, such as panic attacks, worry and uncertainty about life's direction. Physical symptoms may include breathlessness, palpitations, insomnia and fatigue.

How much time do you spend feeling exhausted? Overwhelmed? Telling yourself “as soon as I have some free time, I’ll…” but that time never comes? The endless “stuff” you’re juggling might be due to a shake up in your life, or maybe you’ve spent most of your life trying to figure out how you’re always solving problems but nothing seems to change. Either way, you’ve noticed the pattern and you’re not going to let it continue. It’s time to prioritise what’s important to you, figure out where your energy has gone, and find the ways to get it back.
