I help adults and adolescents deal with loss, bereavement, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and school related issues etc. I specialise in helping clients who have experienced acute or chronic trauma, e.g. in childhood or in an abusive relationship. I use a unique combination of Bioenergy Healing and Psychotherapy to help calm and heal the nervous system overwhelmed by trauma. This approach also works very well for highly sensitive persons. Talk to me if you feel stuck in your life, career or relationship. Whatever is troubling you I can help you face it, understand it and deal with so you can have a good and happy life.

I work with all clients to provide a confidential and safe space that supports and empowers individuals. We work together and meet challenges with actionable skills and a deep sense of personal belief and self compassion. I understand how hard it can be to seek help. I regard all clients with compassion and without judgement. Life throws us many challenges. These can include illness or grief, struggles in the perinatal period or any of a myriad of situations that at times can feel too complicated to even express. It is at these times therapeutic input can assist.

If you build a house with no foundations, what would happen to the house? Most likely there would be a lot of pressure on the frame as it starts to slowly sink, wobble, or collapse over time.

We will sift through what is adding this stress to your life while also collaborating to create strong foundations in your life that will ease the pressure while also allowing you to find fun and joy again. What would it feel like to be able to flow through life again with ease and control?

I work with clients in times of change, grief and crisis who may be feeling depressed, anxious or stressed. Together we explore and develop insights into what the client is doing, why they are doing it and what the need is behind it, then find more fruitful ways to do it. Often this involves identifying behaviours, beliefs, and attitudes from the past and how they are experienced in the present.

From a Theroethical viewpoint while my core approach is Person Centered and largely inspired by the teaching of Dr Carl Rogers, In keeping with this approach my work is largely motivated by my belief that each of us is capable of reaching our own potential if given the right direction, thus healing ourselves. Being an Integrative Therapist I also have the option of drawing on a number of Therapies depending on the clients’ needs. I find that people come to therapy for help for a variety of reasons throughout life. Some come for just a few sessions to talk about a particular issue they may have while others come more long term.

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
