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.

I offer therapy sessions in-person, in one of our two therapy rooms, or remote, via Zoom.
I work with clients seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that shape how they relate to others. Many come to therapy to improve communication, navigate relationship difficulties, or break cycles of behaviour that no longer serve them. Using Transactional Analysis and psychodynamic theory, I help clients identify unhelpful patterns, explore their origins, and understand their impact in the present. This greater self-awareness can lead to healthier relationships, improved communication, and more choice in how they respond to life's challenges.

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.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
