I offer sessions in-person and either outdoors (for example, toasting marshmallows by a campfire) or indoors.
I see your child as wonderfully unique and precious, like a rare and beautiful plant that just needs the right conditions to grow and thrive. I understand how hard it can be to see them struggle with big feelings or challenges they can’t yet express. I aim to provide a warm, encouraging and nurturing space where they can explore, play, and find their way. I’ll spend time learning what your child needs to feel confident and connected. I’ll share what I learn with you, and can help advocate for your child if they're struggling with a school environment.

In-person sessions available in large, comfortable room.
Let’s be honest – life can get weird, overwhelming, or just plain exhausting sometimes. You might feel like you’re constantly masking, stuck in a loop of anxiety, or simply out of step with yourself – like something isn’t quite right but it’s hard to put your finger on it. Maybe you’ve spent a long time trying to fit into boxes that were never made for you in the first place. I offer a space where you don’t have to pretend – where you can breathe out, unmask, and explore what’s really going on, at your own pace.

I offer therapy sessions in-person outdoors and indoors, online and on the phone.
If you experience anxiety, low mood and/or confusion about your emotions, as a person-centred counsellor, I can help you detangle the different aspects of your life that may be activating each other and creating an overall feeling of mental unwellness. I will provide you with a warm, honest and accepting environment in which we can tease-out what really lies at the core of your negative experiences and emotions. This new-found awareness and clarity has the potential to make you feel much more empowered to face-up and overcome past and future challenges and achieve greater mental wellbeing.

It's OK to not be OK... Everyone struggles sometimes, and when we are struggling, one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves is to talk to someone about our struggles. My aim is to help you. I have experienced therapy from both sides of the equation and, like you, have struggled with my own difficulties. I believe that all of us have the potential to develop and become who we are supposed to be. Sometimes it takes some digging and self exploration to reach that goal, and I offer walk alongside you as you to do this.

The sessions can be online or face-to-face in Hamilton.
Beginning therapy can feel like a big step — and it is. It can be both daunting and deeply freeing to start this journey toward healing and self-understanding. As a qualified integrative psychotherapist, I offer a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where you can explore the challenges you’re facing at your own pace. Together, we’ll work to find the strategies and insights that best support your wellbeing — whether you’re seeking short-term guidance or a longer journey of growth and healing. My goal is for you to feel respected, heard, and understood — because every person is worthy of care, compassion, and the chance to heal.

Currently I have some daytime availability weekly and evening every other week Sessions can be in person or online.
Where do my patterns come from and do they seem to be driving your life? It may be very confusing. Your emotions may be very energetic or perhaps you feel stuck and that nothing will ever change. You may think that you're feeling nothing. Experience of numbness or 'nothing' ARE feelings and are signs of a functioning emotional system, it may be useful to have support in making sense of these feelings.

We all need to feel that we are being seen, that our voice is being heard, in safe and empathetic company. If you are in distress, confused or isolated, I will see and hear you as a whole person, not just as an issue or concern. I will support you by holding a space for you to breathe and reflect on worries, anxieties or uncertainties that may be holding you back and explore ways forward to fulfil your potential. Healing can be found in creativity, used as another form of expression when words run out.

I offer a warm, empathic, and non-judgemental space where together, we can begin to build a therapeutic relationship, that fosters trust and supports a process to explore whatever difficulties you may be experiencing. These might be present-day challenges holding you back from the life you want to live, or deeper, more long-standing issues that feel stuck and in need of gentle untangling.

Everybody struggles sometimes and talking about whatever may be troubling us helps us to explore our inner feelings. However, considering counselling can feel a bit daunting. Often, we are so used to putting others before ourselves that it can almost feel selfish to take care of ourselves so we just try to 'get on with it'. It can be difficult to take that first step but I can provide a safe space where I will work compassionately with you to help explore whatever may be troubling you. It can be healing to speak to someone outside of your own circle who can be non judgemental and empathic.
