My professional journey encompasses a diverse range of experiences, including working with people who seek support for stress, anxiety, depression, health issues, adjusting to life changes, parenting support, change to relationships, grief and loss, empty nest, peri and post-menopausal stages, caring for elderly parents etc. My passion lies in working with people of all ages as they navigate life’s challenges and seek positive changes. I have a particular interest in supporting women through mid life and beyond.

I offer a safe space for expats, immigrants and the international community around Asia Pacific. As someone who moved to a new country (Japan) in the midst of the pandemic, I understand the complex feelings that come with moving homes, beginning a new journey and integrating into a new culture without losing what makes you unique. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, low mood or loss of motivation, coping with life changes, trauma, grief & loss, and navigating loneliness/ relationships & dating life in a foreign city. I also draw from my 10 years of corporate experience in my approach to work-related issues.

Hello! I'm a neurodiversity-affirming psychologist and love working with people who seek to discover more about themselves. I'm lucky to be part of a moment of realisation, of clarity and understanding - when everything finally makes sense! I provide ADHD and Autism assessments for Adults via Telehealth, and I also provide Therapy for Adolescents (16+) and Adults experiencing Anxiety, Depression, Stress, ADHD support and sensory and learning differences. After hour appointments are available after hours, and I have appointments available in the next 1-2 weeks. My work is personal, relational and collaborative.

Nobody comes to see a psychotherapist (and pays the therapist good money) unless they want something to change in their lives. My job is to help clients to identify what's in need of changing, and working with them to find the best way to make the changes.

I understand that one needs significant courage to take the first step towards therapy, and therefore I aim to provide a safe environment where you will feel comfortable to openly discuss any issues in a non-judgmental, warm, empathic, and supportive manner. We will explore your current difficulties and invite you to consider what you would like to be different. You will set the direction for our work and I will walk alongside you, as we identify and work on the strategies and actions that support you the best to build the life you want.

Being brave with a trusted listener can help us navigate life’s challenges. It helps us move through the strong emotions that make us feel like the ground is giving way. No matter where our stories have taken us, we all just want to be ok, to feel like we can cope, find connection and meaning.

It’s an honour to meet you. I’m sorry for the difficult circumstances and heartbreak that may have led you here. I work with women who had hoped to be mothers and it didn't happen. My hope is you can experience the love, care and support you need to heal your heart and live well. This is offered, with the deep, heart-felt knowing, that comes from being an involuntarily childless woman too. My personal story includes deeply desiring motherhood, 10 years trying to conceive (including IVF), leaving the clinic and struggling to find appropriate support. It was devastating, and I knew there must be other women just like me.
