Are you feeling distressed, anxious or traumatised by historical or recent experiences? I can help you alleviate, transcend or transform these symptoms, and reclaim psycho-social and emotional wellbeing. The stories we tell about current events and memories of past episodes in our lives profoundly impact on us and our loved ones. Good therapy relies upon us forming sufficient mutual trust and compassion to discuss and interpret personal matters. I look forward to hearing your story and helping you revise retellings of it that firm your resolve to follow your preferred path towards life with less distress, or completely free of it.

Having worked as a Mental Health Social Worker and Psychotherapist for 30 years, I believe in the potential of every person to heal, grow and develop a sense of ownership over the decisions in their lives.

The wonderful thing is that we can learn how to cope, we can learn how to manage and how to be more resilient.

As a registered psychotherapist with a creative art therapy and pastoral background I work from a collaborative position of care, curiosity and empathy. I utilise a variety of approaches to match your specific goals and needs, facilitating understanding of your particular situation to overcome stuckness. One of the philosophies that resonates for me is, “The problem is the problem, the person is not the problem” (White & Epston, founders of Narrative therapy).

I understand that the act of creating can often breakthrough the limitations of language, allowing for you to have deeper expression of emotions that may be difficult to articulate verbally. Art therapy provides a unique and powerful way to explore your inner world, develop self-awareness, and work towards positive change in a supportive and in a non-judgmental environment. My goal is to help my clients develop the tools and skills they need to manage life's challenges and achieve their goals.
