You've worked hard to get where you are, yet inside you feel anxious, stuck, or like a fraud.
Are you a busy professional or parent juggling work, family, and life’s pressures, perhaps on sick leave or between projects with limited time for therapy? Do you feel stuck, exhausted, or weighed down by past experiences, struggle with self-doubt, imposter feelings, or unresolved trauma, and want relief, clarity, and no-nonsense, practical strategies to regain control? Do you wish you could feel confident, calm, and able to fully show up for yourself and the people who matter most, with an experienced therapist, with excellent reviews, and a proven track record of helping people like you make meaningful, lasting change.

I specialise in supporting people navigate stress, pressure, and burnout, overcome relationship and family challenges, work through past experiences holding them back, manage life transitions or feeling "stuck," and those dealing with anxiety and depression.
Life not working out like it should? Stress building up, relationships feeling strained or past experiences catching up with you? Together, we can explore what’s happening, helping you gain clarity, process challenges, and reconnect with yourself at your own pace. My approach is integrative, drawing from different counselling theories and techniques to suit your needs, so our work is tailored to you rather than us following a one-size-fits-all model.

Clients often come to see me with struggles in their relationships, symptoms of anxiety or experiences of depression.
Together, we explore how you understand your world, and how you relate to yourself and the people around you. By thinking about both what happened in the past and what is going on in the present, we will bring existing patterns and strategies to the forefront and consider how helpful or unhelpful they are to you at this time.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.

What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.

How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.

How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
