Although therapy can sometimes be a daunting step to take, I strive to create a safe environment where you can feel at ease to talk and to work through the struggles you are facing. I offer individual therapy to children, adolescents and adults as well as assessments. My areas of interest include autism spectrum disorder, behavioural difficulties, depression, anxiety and adjustment.
I work from a wide range of therapeutic modalities and techniques and use an integrative approach to address the needs of the client. I make use of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approaches together with person centred therapy (PCT).
