It can be really difficult to share your deepest concerns, fears, and issues. Trusting another person with your ‘stuff’ can feel deeply uncomfortable and risky. With this in mind, I do my best to build a relationship with you (and your partner or partners) – in which you feel accepted and respected. No matter why you have come to therapy, or what you may share during each session, my role is to support and help you make sense of what's going on for you. It is not to judge, or tell you what to do.

Kia ora & hello. If you are feeling lost or stuck, psychotherapy can be helpful in uncovering & untangling what may be happening for you. Psychotherapy can also help if you are experiencing relationship and/or communication difficulties; if you feel anxious or sad for no apparent reason; if you feel stressed or affected by life and/or world events; if you are interested in a deeper understanding of yourself. In nurturing self-awareness for the past & present, old stories & adaptive patterns, your conscious & unconscious, psychotherapy can help bring about understanding & lasting changes.

I am a psychotherapist, a supervisor, and a sex therapist; these disciplines intertwine and inform my clinical practice every day. My approach is psychodynamic, which means that you and I will work together, which will help us to unravel the meanings and interpretations that sometimes are affecting the way we see our life and the patterns we find ourselves in. When psychotherapy meets sex therapy, this tool encompasses all and every aspect of a person’s expressions of life.

有的时候,事情就那么猝不及防的发生了;有的时候,事情已经发生了很久。你也许想找个人聊聊,理理思路;也许,你已经笃定闭口不谈,或者不知道该从何谈起。不管你身处何地,决定如何,我都希望你了解到一点,孤军奋战是一种勇敢的选择,寻找帮助和整合资源是一种智慧的眼光。Sometimes things just happen ; other times, they've been happening for a long time. You may want to talk to someone to sort things out; perhaps, you've decided to close your mouth or don't know where to start. Wherever you are and whatever you decide, I hope you have realised one thing: standing alone is a brave choice; searching for help and integrating resources is a wise decision.

Clients offer an array of personal difficulties, seeking insight to issues that are consuming their normally functional life. I have treated clients on a wide spectrum of issues, ranging from mental, physical, emotional, cultural and spiritual ailments. As we uncover a client's personal narrative, their initial needs may change, yet the result remains the same, to find a sense of security and hope in their personal life.

I am a Nelson-based Psychotherapist offering short-term and long-term psychotherapy for adults, children and young people. My approach to working in therapy relies mainly on psychodynamic theories; meaning that I believe our early experiences (such as those encountered during our childhood and adolescence) have a significant impact on us. We may search for patterns in your life, to better understand what may be causing and perpetuating your problems. In long-term therapy it is crucial that you come to trust me, to share these often very personal memories and experiences.
