I’m a therapist and relationship specialist working with individuals, couples, families and teams to improve how people relate, communicate, navigate conflict, and function under pressure. At the core of my work is a simple focus: noticing nervous system dysregulation, through thought (mind), body (somatic awareness), feeling (emotions) & automatic reactions. I support individuals & couples in breaking unhelpful patterns to rebuild connection, tenderness and find the tools to communicate more effectively. We learn who we are through the mirror of the other in all our relationships. The first one is to ourselves.
We cannot change our past life experience or necessarily our present reality but, we most certainly can adjust our thoughts and the story we attach to those thoughts. Specialisation (but not exclusive to), relationship/marriage counselling, anxiety, depression, mid-life transitions, mindfulness meditation, wellness techniques and cognitive behavioural work.
Each story is unique and it takes courage to face one's emotional state and reality head on. Being brave in relationship is having the courage to get into the room and speaking your truth. This is the first step towards understanding your process individually or as a couple. I'll meet you exactly where you are, right here and right now. One breath at a time.

I approach our sessions holistically by working with body, mind and spirit connection. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools in my practice to help ground you in the present moment. We'll look at how your past has impacted your present and how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. We will work together to break down the negative thought patterns that are holding you back.
