Over the past 24 years, I have worked with clients with a range of issues from depression and anxiety to stress and relationship issues. My clients describe me as approachable, down-to-earth and practical in my work with them. I enjoy the process of exploring what is causing distress and identifying together what needs to be done to resolve those issues, whether that be learning more effective ways of responding or working towards acceptance, or a little bit of both. I believe my clients know best what they need and I am there to guide them in that process.
