I integrate counselling, coaching and consultancy to facilitate personal growth.
Whether you are looking to move: from despair to hope; from struggling to coping;
or from managing to flourishing, we can work collaboratively to cultivate a better inner and outer life for you.
For twenty years I have worked with those aged 12 to older adults, blending CBT, ACT, person-centred therapy and behavioural modelling to offer support tailored towards your needs and preferences.
Every life has its challenges and I believe in championing my clients. I specialise in working with transitions be it: adapting to high school, leaving school, career planning, marriage, parenthood, retirement or lifelong learning. This can involve working with issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, neurodiversity and perfectionism.
My core values are compassion and curiosity and I would encourage you to use an initial phone call or session to get a feel for whether we might work well together. Starting therapy can take courage and it is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel safe and accepted.
