After over 20 years as a counsellor, I have been privileged to work with clients who present with a massive variety of issues and hopes. The ideal client is the one who is brave enough to reach out and say they want something to change for them, that they want better for themselves and invite me to be an integral part of that solution - it's an honour that I take seriously, ethically, honestly and carefully. I have worked with all age groups, predominately adults, from 18 - 90, all cultures, backgrounds, religions, genders and histories - I will always be client led and supportive and professional with whatever their goals are.
I specialise in family and domestic violence, addictions, mental health issues (severe included), homelessness, aged and dementia, carers, intellectual disability and trauma/PTSD, which affords me to be experienced in grief and loss, depression and anxiety, suicidal ideation, relationship issues to name a few. The models I use are varied to suit individuals
I genuinely care about being able to support clients with whatever issues they present, within a safe, therapeutic professional and empathic environment. I am not the expert of your life, you are, so I will always listen and involve you in your healing - my aim is to give my clients the best possible support and future available within clinical boundaries.

I work with clients who may be struggling with historical issues that are informing their present. I may not delve into the past initially as it may not be immediately appropriate - I am client focussed person centred and will be listen to the client's priorities and work with what is happening now, which may lead to the past, once we have built a safe and trusting space for the client to be open

The treatment styles and models I use depend on the client, their presenting issues and what I feel will give them the best possible outcomes. I have no specific style as I believe all clinical models have a place with client work and need to be specific to the needs of the client. Predominately solution focussed strengths based for increased sense of self are incorporated with other models.
