Are you experiencing low mood? or loss of motivation and pleasure in life? difficulties in relationships? hightened states of anxiety? Are you feeling stressed all the time? or have low self esteem? If so, these are some of the many aspects my therapy style aims to support change. I support individuals of all ages, including, adolescents, adults and couples with safety, curiosity, and compassion. I operate out of my private practice Psych Corner in Dee why. I recognise that mental health is a deeply personal and unique experience. That’s why I offers a broad range of specialised services tailored to prioritise your needs.
I aim to work alongside you to achieve your goals and increase your quality of life. I believe in building a strong and meaningful relationship with my clients including you. My approach is relaxed/casual and informative, I like to work just like an open book, you can ask me any question in hope that we can build a trusting relationship.
You deserve a compassionate and understanding therapist … someone to help you feel safe, heard, and connected while allowing you the space to explore your healing process. My goal is to help you achieve this. I will support and and encourage lifelong change that will support you to form healthy relationships and increase your sense of wellbeing.
