I am passionate about helping people live mentally and emotionally healthy lives. Having worked as a Mental Health Social Worker and Psychotherapist for 30 years, I believe in the potential of every person to heal, grow and develop a sense of ownership over the decisions in their lives. People often find themselves in my counselling room after they’ve been struggling for a while and can walk in feeling overwhelmed, anxious, uncertain what to do and feeling like life has just become too hard. The wonderful thing is that we can learn how to cope, we can learn how to manage and how to be more resilient.
I’m particularly interested in working with people who have experienced trauma or distressing events. The trauma may be a result of childhood trauma or more recent single event trauma such as car accidents or birth trauma. I'm also interested in helping people manage the overwhelming symptoms of anxiety.
While I use evidence based approaches such as EMDR and Schema Therapy, my starting point in therapy will always be to find a way to connect with you. I believe that having a good connection is one of the most important aspects of therapy. You're welcome to get in touch to further discuss whether you would be comfortable working with me.
