As a practitioner I am interested in the integration of cultural and gender studies and have experience working with depression, isolation, sexual identity, existential difficulties, relational dilemmas and bereavement.
Sometimes loss is experienced through bereavement, however “loss” is not solely related to death. On the contrary, we encounter diverse types of losses in our life, loss of identity, loss of job, loss of confidence and so on, which affects our psychological and emotional wellbeing. Together, we can process and become aware of the influence this has on us.

l am interested in people, l am fascinated by their relationships with others, with themselves, with their lifestyle, ( food, drink and drugs, fitness, work)
How people communicate with others and with everyday life and work, and how they see that they are communicated to.

l have no specialities, except relating with people, l've been doing it for a long time!
ln this way, we may see why a need for one form of addiction arises, why creativity has turned to boredom, or why constant worry becomes an every day occurance.

I work with all kinds of people, but have specific experience with issues related to queer/trans identity, non-normative relationships, neurodivergence, and systemic oppression.
Psychotherapy supports you to find a deeper connection with yourself and cope with the challenging parts of living. Our sessions are a supportive environment for you to speak without censoring yourself and I will listen with an open heart and mind.
Ultimately I believe you hold the answers, and I actively avoid assigning labels or pathologising what you are experiencing. Instead I'm here to listen, offer an outside perspective on the issues you bring, and support you to get curious about yourself.

The offer is an honest working relationship where vulnerabilities are safe to express and explore.
If you are reading this, it’s likely you’ve reached the point where you realise that additional help is needed. Perhaps your sense of vitality is diminished, or you hold negative thoughts and feelings about yourself. It may be that memories and patterns from the past hold you back. Therapy with me is a process of safely bringing this picture into focus. The phrase “Feel it to heal it” is largely true – that is, change comes from feeling your feelings and expressing them, instead avoiding or battling them.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
What types of relationship issues can therapists help with?
Therapists who specialise in relationships work with individuals, couples, and families on a wide range of issues. Common concerns include communication problems, infidelity, intimacy difficulties, and navigating major life transitions such as marriage, parenthood, or caregiving. Family therapists may also address parent–child conflict, sibling rivalry, or other complex family dynamics.
What are the different types of therapy for relationship issues?
Relationship issues can be addressed through different types of therapy depending on whether you’re seeking help as an individual, couple, or family. In individual therapy, the focus is often on helping an individual understand how their own patterns, attachment style, and past experiences may be shaping their current relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), attachment therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) are three common forms of individual treatment that can help individuals understand their current relationship dynamics and improve their relationship quality. Couples therapy often uses other forms of evidence-based treatment, such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) or the Gottman Method. Rather than focusing on the individual, these approaches focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and strengthening emotional bonds between individuals in a relationship. Similarly, family therapy often focuses on communication but also examines how larger-scale dynamics—such as how parenting styles, generational differences, or sibling roles—may shape family relationships.
What actually happens in a therapy session for relationship issues?
The structure of a session depends on whether therapy involves one person or multiple people. In individual sessions, the focus may be on exploring personal patterns, role-playing difficult conversations, practicing listening skills, or setting goals for handling conflict. In couples or family sessions, each person is encouraged to share their perspective while the therapist helps uncover underlying emotions, highlight unhelpful interaction patterns, and guide more constructive communication.
How can I find an effective relationship therapist?
Finding a therapist who is a good fit for your needs, either for individual, couples, or family therapy, is critical to ensure effective therapy. Psychology Today’s online directory makes it easy to search for therapists who specialise in relationship issues, as well as related topics like marriage counselling. The platform offers filters to help you find a provider who fits your needs, such as gender, location, and fees. While the Psychology Today directory also offers the ability to filter by insurance type, it’s important to note that insurance may not cover many types of relationship therapy, such as couples counselling, so it’s important to inquire with your insurance plan about specific coverage details if intending to use insurance for therapy.
