Anxiety Therapists in Tauranga
Together we'll unpack the patterns of anxiety, overthinking, and self-doubt.
Tired of living in your head? I work with overthinkers, people pleasers, and ADHDers who look fine on the outside but feel quietly exhausted and disconnected on the inside. Perhaps you've spent a long time making yourself smaller so others could feel more comfortable. You're not broken – you're just ready to stop shrinking.

"It's the current imprint of that pain, horror, and fear living inside people
My practice is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS), integrated with somatic healing. This approach releases emotional patterns and triggers from trauma, offering compassionate support to all parts with effective results. Just so you know, I provide only 90-minute sessions, as IFS requires this time for more profound work.

I specialise in children and teens who struggle with anxiety, poor self-esteem, family and friendship concerns and problems with school.
I have emotionally supported hundreds of children through difficult moments for many years. Having studied in the USA, UK and NZ and worked with the children of the Christchurch Earthquakes for several years, I have been privileged to learn from and work with some very inspiring and resilient people. This knowledge was used to volunteer as crisis responder and as an in-person Youthline counsellor amongst other roles.

I now operate my own Private Practice in a beautiful and healing setting in Whakamarama.

Hi, I am a registered clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist living and practicing in Nelson, New Zealand. My primary focus is providing psychotherapy. Psychotherapy involves the careful application of techniques that help people change their behaviors, thoughts, feelings, and other personal characteristics in ways that enable them to thrive and cope with the stresses of living. I prefer to work with clients in person but if meeting in person is impossible or impractical, I can provide services online.

Children don’t always have the words to express how they feel but they show us through their play. I offer a warm, safe space where children can express big emotions, make sense of their experiences, and feel more settled and understood.
Using play therapy I support children aged 5–12 who may be struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, behavioural challenges, ADHD, autism, or life changes. Together, we gently build emotional regulation, resilience, and a stronger sense of self at their pace.

People struggling with emotional distress - whether it be anxiety, depression, adjustment dysregulation, relational injury or loss, failing to thrive or feel satisfied with your life.
Welcome. People come to therapy for a number of reasons and most want relief from suffering, emotional symptoms, inability to thrive or feel satisfied, overwhelm or stuckness. With my 20+ years of experience as a registered psychotherapist I offer evidence based tools (backed up by my interest in current neuroscience and wellness science), to help reduce your current discomfort. Alongside this we start to look at how life long patterns/ideas of self are limiting your ability to thrive and feel truly authentic/seen and we carefully rewrite some of these narratives to help you live a more equipped, authentic, satisfied life.
