About me

Maybe something doesn't feel right. Perhaps you wonder why you think and behave in certain ways, or reapeat patterns that you know aren't good for you. Maybe you'd like to understand the relationships in your life. Whatever the reason, therapy can help you process events, find acceptance, face challenges or instigate change. It's a weekly moment to explore what's going on for you in a private and tranquil space. We work together to understand your current situation and move you forward by: - Connecting events from the past to the present - Looking at things from different perspectives, and - Addressing the parts of your life where you feel stuck I have particular experience with: - Grief and loss - Identity: including gender and sexuality, neurodiversity, values and beliefs, culture, ability and disability - Relationships: including relationship to self, family, non-monogamy, polyamory and kink - Anxiety, stress, depression and depressive episodes - The decision to have — or not have — a family including infertility, assisted fertility, adoption and surrogacy - Processing or considering an autism / ADHD diagnosis - Trauma and adverse early life experiences I welcome enquiries for these, or any other challenge you might be facing.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
I am a psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist. This is a traditional talk therapy approach where sessions feel a little like conversations. Each week, you talk about whatever is on your mind and, in turn, I use clinical experience and theory to offer interpretations, insights and perspectives that will hopefully bring clarity and understanding for you. I have clinical experience and theoretical knowledge, but you are the expert in you! So, we work together to faciliate positive change or acceptance for you.
