My passion is working with people who want to develop themselves at a personal and relational level. I work with people who have experienced great difficulty in life, whether this difficulty persists from childhood or results from more recent trauma or setbacks; people who understand that they need help and want to move forward in their lives, bringing tangible and sustainable change.....and freedom. I get excited about the transformational aspect that therapy can bring. I draw on my extensive life experience as a mature therapist, that brings with it acceptance, non-judgement and wisdom.
As a collaborative therapist working within a number of modalities, I walk alongside my clients, joining them in their stories to develop new and more effective ways of coping. Areas of focus are: anxiety and depression, stress and burnout, trauma, bereavement and loss, life stage transitions, and couples counselling.
Life can be so confusing, stressful and anxiety-provoking, and for many there is a sense of isolation and shame in merely surviving. I want, as best I can, to help you not only survive, but to thrive, to find joy and peace in your life once again, or perhaps for the first time in your life. At the very least I'd like you to know that you are not alone.

I am passionate about working with people struggling with anxiety, depression and trauma of any kind. We explore childhood experiences to provide deeper understanding of foundational patterns related to attachment and pathways of thinking that are often the cause of 'survival' coping strategies. More effective coping strategies are then developed, in the moment, to allow for a sense of thriving.

As a mindfulness-based practitioner, I like to use mindfulness techniques as a way to manage anxiety and depression. Based on the presenting problem, I generally like to begin therapy by looking back at childhood attachments, difficulties and/or traumas. From there, I work with various modalities dependant on the unique needs of my client and their stories.
