I am a fully accredited Counsellor and Psychotherapist. I work with a range of issues to include anxiety, bereavement, depression, relationships, intimacy, and self-esteem. I have a particular interest in working with individuals who have experienced adoption to include the adult adoptee, the birth parent and/or the adoptive parents. I provide short-term counselling to those who need support getting through a particular issue or event in their lives and longer term psychotherapy to individuals who wish to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships with others.

I work with adult adoptees who may be struggling with unresolved feelings with regard to their own adoption story. I also support adoptees on their journey of information gathering and the possible challenges/expectations with regard to reunion with birth family. The goal of therapy is to explore the issues that are causing you distress and work together in a way that helps you get your life back.
