I’m also passionate about supporting clients who are navigating relationship difficulties including those who have experienced domestic violence.
My own adjustment to motherhood came with challenges – particularly with guilt, anxiety and isolation that accompanies many parents’ early experiences. Giving back to the perinatal community and helping clients through similar challenges brings so much meaning to my work.

Waitlist for new clients
My clinical focus is grounded in helping clients understand long-standing patterns such as perfectionism, burnout, people-pleasing, emotional shutdown, and disconnection through a relational, trauma-informed, and compassionate lens.
Many of the people I support are deeply perceptive and sensitive, exploring whether Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD shapes their inner world. For those who are late-identified or high-masking, therapy offers a safe space to untangle identity from adaptation and rebuild self-trust, allowing neurodivergence to be lived with greater authenticity and stability.

My counselling philosophy is grounded in the knowledge that everyone has strengths and resources that can help them thrive and all of us need genuine caring relationships to live our best lives.
I have the privilege of working with individuals, couples and families navigating the challenges they are facing such as anxiety, depression, parenting stress, grief, infertility, menopause and life transitions. By enhancing self awareness, developing new coping skills and fortifying vital relationships, improved wellbeing and life satisfaction can occur.
