I understand that high school and university can be a particularly tough time in people's lives, and I want to be there for people as an ear to listen. Not only schooling itself can be difficult, but every aspect of our lives can be - such as family, friends, extra curricular activities, risk taking, substances, and much more. It is easy to get caught up in issues with those that we are close with, so to work with a fresh set of eyes may be useful. I love learning about people's stories and will work from a non-judgemental frame of mind, because there is nothing to be ashamed of in sharing our stories.

Authenticity, genuineness and unconditional support are the foundations of my therapeutic approach. I prioritise understanding what has happened to you, rather than what is wrong with you or focusing solely on labels or diagnoses. I recognise the challenge of finding a therapist who truly listens and sees you, offering a secure and trustworthy space. Like many, I have faced my own struggles and experienced the frustration of not finding the support I needed. These experiences ignited my passion for providing a different kind of service – one that is professional but also warm, understanding and nurturing.

Everyone has their own strengths and potentials - often all you need is a leg-up to help reach for them. We experience life differently, too. One person's anger, trauma, grief or self-doubt is not the same as the next person's. My interests in animals, nature and outdoor sports taught me to value the whole person; mind, body, heart and intuition. So you won't have to perform in any way. Each session is designed for you, based on Master’s degree-level expertise, evidence-based approaches, compassion, respect and experience.

Be Heard. Explore Why. Make Change. You may just need someone to listen, you may need to understand how you got here, you may want to move forward in a different direction. Whatever the reason you have found yourself here, I offer support and guidance for you to gain insight and take action in your life. You have shown great strength in just getting to this point and having the awareness of needing some extra support. I aim to create a safe space where all people, thoughts and feelings are welcome. Using an integrative approach, I consider which therapies best suit you individually rather than one size fits all.

Even though our journeys in life and struggles differ from one another, my life experience and training helps me to come from a place of empathy, care, and understanding that life is challenging and that we are all striving for a sense of wholeness and wellbeing. My practice uses a person-centered and strengths-based approach and it would be my pleasure to walk beside you and support you as you navigate through life’s difficult times and complexities.

Those times when someone says, "I have been everywhere", or "tried everything", and they feel worn down by their emotional pain or discomfort are times when the therapeutic space I offer can bring back hope, reduce pain (emotional, physical or spiritual pain) and enhance life flow for an individual. Leading people out of their suffering is what shapes and underpins my business, services and life. I work holistically, with a client centred approach and often work with those who have re-occurring or persistent emotional, spiritual or financial stress, or chronic health conditions, to bring relief and peace to their life and inner world.

My overall purpose of counselling and psychotherapy is to help you untangle your mind and reconnect the dots so that you can get back in touch with your essence and take charge of your life. The purpose of PsychoEnergetic therapy is to connect you back with who you truly are rather than who you were conditioned to be – to reconnect you to your inner wisdom and guidance, your innermost dreams and your fundamental purpose. It enables you to connect to the existential reality of life so that you can gain a level of acceptance of anything that can’t be changed. This will help you to find the courage to change those things you can.
