When we try to surpress strong emotions, they have a nasty habit of impacting on our lives in other ways through our behaviours. We can try to ignore them or numb them but they are still there. After a while the pressure grows and it starts to impact on those around us, our jobs, our families. You may feel alone and isolated and struggling to find the answer.

Specialties
• Anxiety & stress management
• Burnout & work-life balance
• Self-esteem & confidence building
• Loss & bereavement
• Life transitions & personal change
• Relationship with self & others
• Work-related pressure, isolation & overwhelm
• Low mood & depression
I’m an integrative therapist, which is a fancy way of saying I don’t believe one size fits all
People are complex, layered, contradictory… and therapy should be able to meet that.
My work is strongly influenced by connection theory — because real change doesn’t happen through techniques alone, it happens through relationship. Feeling seen, understood, and safe enough to be honest (even about the stuff you’ve never said out loud) is where the real work begins
I believe therapy should feel human, not clinical. Insight matters, but so does humour.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety disorders, low self-esteem, depression, and bereavement.
Through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), I help you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are linked, and how these patterns can keep difficulties going. For example, anxiety can often be maintained by unhelpful thought patterns and avoidance or low self-esteem can be reinforced by negative self-beliefs.

Bereavement Counsellors
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
