Life can throw many challenges our way where we can feel overwhelmed. The opportunity to talk through these challenges with a neutral person in a confidential, caring and empathetic space can provide you with the support you need as you navigate these times.

It can happen to all of us — we find ourselves feeling distressed, dealing with grief, loss, betrayal, or anything else that life might throw our way. Maybe you have reached a breaking point. Or maybe you are experiencing sudden, unexpected distress. Reaching out for support can be a difficult but courageous thing to do. I can provide a safe space for you to explore your concerns and build your resilience. That way, you can have increased presence and focus where it really matters. With the people you love, doing the things you enjoy.

I work with adolescents and adults to help them resolve difficulties or problematic patterns they are struggling with. These may include issues with mood, anxiety, relationships, or work. You may not be able to put your finger on it, yet know there is a problem that is getting in the way of leading a fulfilling life. You may have tried everything you can think of to improve your situation, and be experiencing a range of painful feelings, including frustration, hopelessness, or feeling stuck. There may be mixed feelings about seeking help.

I have over 20 years of experience working with people experiencing a range of difficulties. My experience has taught me that often we develop unconscious ways of making sense of the world, our relationships and how we see ourselves from a very early age. These thoughts and feelings are often not accessible to our conscious mind and making sense of why we struggle so much can be really difficult. You may have tried a range of things in the past that have not really helped or you may not even know where to start.

12-25 year olds seek me out when they are struggling with worries of life that are limiting their potential. Many battle self- doubt and thoughts like, "I'm not good enough / pretty enough" or "I can't do that" or "I'm stupid"; ...and comparing self to others is a BIG TRAP. Science shows us that we are all unique in so many ways (finger & retina print, DNA, eye & hair colour, body shape, family structure, school/home/work/world-experience etc) so why do we torture ourselves by making comparisons to others??? YOU ARE PERFECTLY YOU.

Emotional regulation is a significant challenge for individuals with Autism and ADHD. Children with Autism and ADHD may struggle to identify, understand, and manage their emotions effectively, leading to difficulties in regulating their behavior and responses to various situations. As a therapist, I assist in facilitating understanding of their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors which is crucial in helping these individuals develop essential skills for emotional regulation.

My overall purpose of counselling and psychotherapy is to help you untangle your mind and reconnect the dots so that you can get back in touch with your essence and take charge of your life. The purpose of PsychoEnergetic therapy is to connect you back with who you truly are rather than who you were conditioned to be – to reconnect you to your inner wisdom and guidance, your innermost dreams and your fundamental purpose. It enables you to connect to the existential reality of life so that you can gain a level of acceptance of anything that can’t be changed. This will help you to find the courage to change those things you can.
