Often, people come to therapy not because there is one clear problem, but because something doesn't feel quite right anymore. You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected from those around you, or wondering why the same difficulties keep resurfacing. I work with children (7+), adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, maternal mental health concerns, grief, and major life transitions. Together, we explore these experiences with curiosity and care.
I offer psychotherapy and neuropsychological assessments for children (7+), adolescents, adults, and couples, both online and in person. My approach is collaborative and grounded in psychodynamic therapy, recognising that our emotional lives are shaped by both past experiences and present relationships. Together, we explore the patterns, thoughts, emotions.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you're already carrying a lot. Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your child, or your relationship, you don't have to make sense of it all on your own. If you feel we may be a good fit, I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and explore how we can work together.
