With over 20 years of experience, I support adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Using evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, IFS, and Motivational Interviewing, I provide practical, personalised therapy to help you build resilience, strengthen relationships, and create lasting change.
At iDiscover Psychotherapy, we provide evidence-based therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Using CBT, DBT, IFS, and Motivational Interviewing, we help individuals, couples, and families build resilience, improve wellbeing, and create lasting change.
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whatever you're experiencing, you'll be met with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based support. When you're ready, we're here to help you move forward with confidence and hope.
