As a mental health practitioner working with parents and young people, I am particularly interested in early intervention and well-being support. Accordingly, my services include child-centred play therapy, adolescent counselling, parent consulting, psychoeducation, perinatal counselling and outdoor therapy (e.g. walk & talk sessions for new mums). In my sessions, I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental and nurturing space where clients can comfortably explore issues, identify unhelpful patterns, be open to receiving support, learn new skills, and grow into their best selves.

I’m a registered clinical counsellor and a Gestalt psychotherapist. I work with people who feel stuck, disconnected from themselves and others and whose inner world can be a harsh place at times. Are relationships difficult to navigate, you frequently feel overwhelmed or “not good enough” and have a hard time setting boundaries? Have you developed coping strategies that are no longer working or aren’t very healthy? I will support you in learning to understand what’s in the way of you living a fulfilling and meaningful life. You’ll get to know yourself better and gain new skills and strategies for tackling life’s challenges.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, tired, hopeless or lacking joy; like your emotions are uncontrollable or that they do not match with reality; that your worry is getting out of hand or that there is no longer any point, then it might be a good time to seek some support. We are social creatures, and despite what our modern society might have us believe, we all need human connection to function. Seeking support is a huge sign of strength – the strength to actually reach out and let someone in, in order to start the healing process. If you can relate to this or if you have set yourself a personal development goal please reach out.

Hi, for the last 20 years I have been working with people who are experiencing challenges in their relationships. Conflict and communication problems often at the heart of these challenges. For many years I saw this when mediating with couples or parents who had decided to separate. Now through counselling I prefer to focus on the source of the problems before its too late. My particular motivation is to prevent conflict having a negative impact on children when they are involved.

Are you struggling with PTSD, complex PTSD, or any addiction? Is your current therapy just not working even though you tried your hardest? Recent brain research tells us that talk therapy doesn't give us the expected outcomes we once thought. We know that traumatic incidents can affect us years later. Our brain stores past traumas in a particular way that tries to keep us safe from disturbing memories; we know that the trauma resurfaces elsewhere. It comes out in flashbacks, heightened nervous system responses or self-soothing behaviours, which result in addictions. If you feel like you are going around in circles, help is at hand.
