I work with people of all ages and from all walks of life, but the majority of my clients tend to be people who've always felt a little bit different from everyone else. Kids or teenagers with wild imaginations, boundless energy and insatiable curiosity. Humans who make stuff: creatives, artists, designers, engineers, writers, and thinkers. Neurodivergent people with or without a formal diagnosis. Those who don’t meet society's neurotypical expectations or fit neatly into everyone else’s boxes. The daydreamers, doodlers, punks, pirates and poets.
I help folks to understand and appreciate themselves. To work with their brains instead of trying to force themselves to be like everyone else. To embrace their unique skills, harness their strengths and corral their innate creativity as they reconnect with their own identity, values and self-worth.
I'm a neurodivergent creative therapist and coach on a mission to make therapy more creative, playful and human. I live in Tāmaki Makaurau with my partner, our kids and our dog Ludo, and try to get outside as much as I can. At home you’ll likely find me out in the garden, tinkering with my latest project in the studio or curled up with a good book.
