Hi there! I’m passionate about helping individuals build and sustain functional, healthy relationships – with themselves, partners, family and the world at large - while investigating meaning and identity in their lives. I work with a variety of clients including those navigating anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, life transitions and interpersonal struggles. Let's look to find opportunities for personal growth as we find our way through these challenges. There is a power in having a fellow traveller beside you on your way to getting to know yourself, and I would be honoured to accompany you for this journey.

I weave together holistic psychotherapy, neuroscience-based coaching, and the wisdom of ancient traditions. My work is an invitation to become the fullest expression of who you are, not only to flourish as an individual, but also to be a force for good: in your family, your work, your community, and in the world at large.

Individual therapy is an incredibly worthwhile and life affirming experience.

Or perhaps you are not sleeping because of nightmares or overthinking? Or you've been in therapy for long standing issues (eg childhood trauma) and progress is still not being made? Perhaps you have recently suffered a loss or going through a major life transition or chronic illness?
