I work with children, young people, adults, and facilitate therapeutic groups and workshops. I enjoy working with brain-injured and neurodiverse clients (including ADD and ASD). I support clients to stand up to problems and develop preferred ways of being. I work with them to identify, reflect upon, and achieve the hopes and goals that are important to them in their life and relationships. I also provide professional and clinical supervision to health and allied health practitioners.I believe that a collaborative, safe and respectful therapeutic relationship enhances emotion regulation and promotes self-awareness and resilience.
I specialise in trauma recovery, attachment work, self-concept development, and emotional regulation. My work is based in Narrative Therapy and informed by Compassion-Focused Therapy, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Polyvagal Therapy, ACT, DBT, CBT, Transactional Anaysis and Parts-Work to support self-awareness and self-compassion.
I am a compassionate, empathic, gentle, encouraging and supportive counsellor, supervisor & facilitator. I believe that a collaborative, safe and respectful therapeutic relationship enhances emotion regulation and promotes self-awareness and wellbeing. I value your agency, knowledge and resources. Please do reach out to me.

I integrate narrative therapy with Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and mindful self-compassion to identify and reframe unhelpful patterns. I also incorporate polyvagal therapy and psychoeducation to regulate your autonomic nervous system, and support development of self-compassion and emotional regulation through mindfulness practices.
