Feeling overwhelmed with anxiety or stuck in cycles within your thoughts, emotions, or relationships? I offer a direct and focused approach to therapy which is always rooted in warmth and respect. Together, we can untangle what may at times feel chaotic. I will offer you fresh perspectives and insights that can help you to shift your understanding of yourself. This is a collaborative process, where you will be met with calm, safety, and a clear path forward.

I work integratively, combining Person-Centred, Psychodynamic and Internal Family Systems approaches. I have a particular interest in working with anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship issues and attachment issues, but I have also worked with many clients who are struggling with depression, suicidal ideation, loss and gender issues.

Book a free intro call today. Get a sense of what I am like and how I work as well as being able discuss what your hopes and goals are for counselling without any pressure or obligation.

Specialties and Expertise

Expertise

Anxiety
Attachment Issues
Relationship Issues
Self Esteem

When working with anxiety, trauma, attachment and relationship issues, I believe in tracing your presenting issues back to their root cause. This not only allows us to identify the catalyst of your emotional distress, but it enables you to process through past traumas and memories in a safe space. I combine this approach with "here and now" techniques designed to bring relief from daily symptoms
