I am a registered Clinical Psychologist with many years experience working with children, teenagers, adults and couples. I also have a great deal of experience working with families and groups. I have facilitated groups where drugs and/or alcohol addiction is a familial problem for many years. I have also worked with mood disorders such as Depression and Bipolar. My doctoral thesis was on the mediating effect of Art Therapy for the treatment of Trauma and Bereavement, as I believe in the benefits of working with many different modalities in psychotherapy.

I believe every individual has their own unique reality composed of life experiences, personality, knowledge and emotions that shape their perspectives of the world. I offer a safe, non judgemental space where you are able to deeply explore and process stressful life events and times of transition. A space where you are able to discover parts of yourself, seek meaning, recognise your personal power and honour your life story. My approach is firmly rooted in deep compassion, unconditional positive regard and a genuine openheartedness. “People only seriously consider change when they feel accepted for exactly who they are.”
