Online 'shopping' for a therapist can be tough. I know, I've done it. Scrolling through faces and bios. So why me? I love my job and I love to share what I have learned over the years. My approach is direct, yet compassionate and practical but evidence based. I don't do 'therapy' talk, I do 'human' talk. I also do a lot of listening. Our sessions are a chance for you to fully be yourself - with no judgement - or to find out who you really are. Together we will explore the barriers holding you back - and slowly break them down, so that you can start living right now, instead of waiting for that perfect version of you to turn up.

I specialise in helping people with long-standing trauma and anxiety, who feel stuck in patterns of intrusive thoughts, persistent worries, self-criticism, and regret. Often, there are multiple overlapping difficulties that have affected identity, confidence, relationships, or daily life. I work with people who benefit from longer-term therapy, consistent appointments, and an individualised treatment plan that may involve one therapeutic approach or a carefully integrated combination of therapies. So, if previous therapy didn't brought the change you hoped, if you've felt unheard and unseen, you may be exactly who I work best with.

It is so hard to watch your child struggle, and despite your best efforts, remain unsure how to support them. They may have become anxious, withdrawn, or struggling at school. Maybe their moods are unpredictable, or they are stuck in patterns that seem difficult to understand. Perhaps something difficult has happened in the past and you’re wondering if it’s still affecting them. You might feel that you have tried everything but it hasn't worked, leaving you feeling powerless and unsure how to best support. Therapy can help your child make sense of their emotions, process difficult experiences, and regain a sense of control.

Psychological support is about investing in you. Life can be chaotic, intense, confusing, and we can be left feeling disconnected from ourselves, our lives, and the people around us. Sometimes we just need some space to stop and think. Psychological support is also about developing a deeper understanding of yourself - who you are, what you need, what matters to you. For others, it's about building on existing skills - how to get more out of relationships, improving communication, being more assertive, boosting your sleep and performance, learning to be the best version of yourself.

Testing and Evaluation Counsellors
What is a psychological evaluation?
A psychological evaluation is a test or assessment most commonly administered by a trained psychologist that is intended to be used in the diagnosis of specific psychological conditions, such as ADHD, mood disorders, personality disorders, dementia or Alzheimer's, and learning disabilities. Psychological evaluations can help inform future treatment decisions and help direct clients to professionals and resources that may be most helpful, such as potential therapy options or additional school supports.

Can psychological evaluations be done on individuals of any age group?
Psychological evaluations are conducted on individuals of all ages and can be beneficial to individuals across the lifespan. However, specific types of evaluations may be most frequently conducted on individuals of certain age groups. For instance, ADHD or learning disability testing is often conducted in children ages 4-12--the period of time when ADHD symptoms most commonly emerge. In contrast, cognitive functioning assessments, such as those conducted to diagnose dementia, are most commonly conducted in elderly individuals. Clients should ensure that the psychologist they are seeing has specific expertise in conducting evaluations in their age group to ensure they receive a correct diagnosis.

How long does a psychological evaluation take?
Psychological evaluations vary in length depending on the test being administered and the goals of the evaluation; however, most evaluations are 2-4 hours in length. Some evaluations may take as long as 8 hours but can often be spread across multiple days. In some cases, clients will also attend an intake session or interview, which can help the psychologist assess client functioning outside of the testing environment.

How should I prepare for a psychological test and evaluation?
Individuals do not need to prepare for psychological tests or evaluations in most cases, as they are intended to measure a client's baseline psychological status without test-specific preparation. However, clients may want to brainstorm a list of questions for their psychologist about any tests they are receiving prior to the assessment, including what potential outcomes may mean for what next steps the client should take.
