Waitlist for new clients
I work with clients across the lifespan (age 4 and above) to address a variety of life challenges, such as managing stress, anxiety and depression, as well as struggles with life transitions. Finding hope and recognising your resources can feel challenging when going through a rough patch. Through therapy sessions, I’ll support you in brainstorming for solutions to overcome your difficulties and celebrate your unique strengths. I also have a special interest in neurodiversity and the female presentation of ASD. Neurodiversity can often bring invisible challenges. Finding the right support from an understanding person is essential.

I am a clinical psychologist who seeks to understand exactly what's going on for you and why, and how we can work together to achieve the life you want to live. I believe in treating the whole person - not just symptoms or a diagnosis in isolation. I have an interest in how the brain and body operate together during emotional states. This means my approach includes 'not just talking', and will include education and skill-building for true understanding and meaningful change.

At the heart of my practice is a deep belief that every individual has the innate capacity for growth, healing, and transformation. As a clinical psychologist, I consider it an honour to walk alongside you on your journey towards greater well-being and self-discovery. My approach is grounded in evidence-based therapies, tailored to your specific needs and goals. However, I believe that true transformation extends beyond techniques and theories. It requires a genuine commitment to self-exploration, a willingness to embrace discomfort, and a readiness to actively participate in the process of change.

My interest is in working with people who have a history of being in unhealthy relationships and who wish to change this. Clients come to me because they notice a pattern of being attracted to individuals who exhibit behaviours such as abusiveness, control, manipulation and devaluation. This often leads to their sense of rejection and abandonment; and feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. Together, we work through factors such as how to regulate intense emotions, tolerate distress and curb impulsiveness. We also learn strategies such as assertiveness, individuation, as well as gaining awareness about the impact of factors such
