After 17 years of continuous abstinence from all mood-altering substances, I understand that every journey is different but we all strive for the same thing: inner contentment and meaningful connection with others. Helping you to find your own recovery, whatever that looks like and means to you, is my passion. Check out my Google reviews to help you to decide if I could be the right therapist for you.
I offer 1:1 Addictions Counselling, both online and in-person in a confidential, safe setting. Whether I'm supporting international clients online or local clients in person, I will listen empathetically and help you to find your own answers. I work with all addictions in a trauma-informed way, from substances to porn, WiFi to work, gambling to codependency.
If you’re ready to address some issues, try a few sessions with me. You will be made aware of your patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours which, with some action, will help you to transform your life for the better.

I work with people who have learned to cope in unhealthy ways by using behaviours or substances, but who are now wishing to make some changes. We will look into the issues in a safe space and work together to address them - whether anxiety or depression, trauma or low self-esteem - in order to help you to live a much more contented, enriched life, whatever that looks like to you.

I often use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing techniques. I'll help you explore what brought you to therapy and find ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we can look together at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. During sessions, I'll help you to challenge those thoughts to help you to heal.
