​I work with couples, families and individual adults facing a large variety of personal, behavioural and relational difficulties. I have a particular interest in working with couples, as well as individuals struggling with trauma, anxiety, self worth, depression and their own relational issues. I have experience working with clients diagnosed with BPD, psychosis and schizophrenia. Above all I work with clients towards a sustainable positive way forward free of emotional and psychological distress with compassion and confidentiality.
I adapt treatment to each individual client's needs. The focus is the personal wishes and best interest of the client in a safe, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment. My therapeutic specialisation is in Relationship Counselling accredited by the National Council of Integrative Psychotherapists (NCIP).
I have a long standing interest in human behaviour and relationships, noting the impact of everyday difficulties upon society. These difficult life experiences led me to seek a better way of living for myself which led to a lifelong passion to help others fulfil their own potential.

You can generally expect to start feeling better from the first appointment however this very much depends on the client and the issue being addressed. Clients report feeling relieved and more hopeful from the start with steady progress over the weeks. We may be working on anxiety or trauma from relationships. We touch upon the aspects which the client feels are their priority and we move forward.
