I am a clinical psychologist with a passion for working with people using a holistic approach, recognising each person’s unique qualities. I have a warm and direct approach, and use humour where appropriate in my work with young adults and through the lifespan into older adulthood.

Clients can present to therapy for a variety of reasons. On the other hand, clients can feel overwhelmed or unsure about where to begin with therapy. I provide a safe, non-judgemental space that meets where the client is at, and gently explores what's happening in their life. Where together we can work towards goals that are alligned with their hopes, aspirations, desires or needs; to improve connection with the self, interpersonal relationships and the interplay with their surrounding social world.

Sexuality is multidimensional that engages all areas of life: mental, emotional, physical and social. Understanding the psychology and the culture through which sexuality is experienced is integral to finding well being and happiness. Shame, guilt, anxiety, as well as other psychological or medical conditions, can profoundly affect how we experience sexuality and deeply impact or attach itself to the complexities of our personal history and life experiences.

I am flexible and able to work with both males and females. Age does not preclude me from seeing someone. I am accepting of anyone who is looking for someone to listen to them and will give them a voice. I worked in Samaritans and Lifeline for 20 years as a centre supervisor, trainer and shift supervisor. I have recently been working with addiction and the family of the addict and am able to hold you in a safe space as you become self aware and self accepting.

You might be facing challenges such as anxiety or depression, navigating change, past trauma, unresolved grief, or exploring identity. You might be supporting a child, partner or parent through crisis or difficulty; learning how to manage a health condition; wanting to change unhelpful patterns or behaviours; or be in the process of repairing a relationship. You might be working towards self-awareness, using therapy as part of your self-care plan. Or, you might not know what you need, other than that you need help finding out. As a counsellor, I offer you my empathy and my support.

Vulnerability, confusion and anxiety can be present when arriving at cross roads in life. These feelings can arise through dilemmas as to how, why and where a solution can be found. Not knowing whom to seek can also bring about feelings of isolation and fear. The desire to confide in someone who is trustworthy and willing to understand can sometimes make the difference between that of a professional or of others. My practice is one of compassion, empathy, and willingness to listen, without judgement, all in the pursuit of developing a supportive relationship. My belief that together, change can happen!
