Hi there. I have 20+ years’ experience as New Zealand Registered Health Professional with an extensive background in both mental health therapy/counselling and occupational therapy. Using a combination of evidence based talking and somatic trauma therapies, I tailor my approach to support you to develop tools to navigate your mental health and/or life challenges you may be facing. We can address taking steps towards progress and meaningful change in whatever stage you are at in your life. This may include gaining insight into thinking patterns, beliefs, behaviour and body sensations that may be contributing or protecting factors.

I use talking therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I am trauma informed and use the polyvagal theory to guide a somatic based approach. I am experienced in using neuro-affirming and sensory processing based approaches including supporting people with ADHD; I am a member of the Canadian ADHD Resource Alliance. I work with ages 16+ years.

I provide a style of therapy that is collaborative, reflective, empowering and practical. Feel free to email me to enquire further about my services. You can also look at my website for more information about me.

My approach is unique as I have come from two different backgrounds; as a health professional with an understanding of both physical and mental health/illness/disability and the other as a talking based therapist. I have special interests in trauma and ADHD. I combine all these to provide a bespoke therapy service particularly if you have physical health, mental health or neurodiversity concerns
