As a Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years experience, I work hard with my clients to understand and decode the language of emotions. I help with everything from "problems of living" such as workplace stress, challenges associated with injuries, relationship problems, grief and loss to more serious conditions such as anxiety, depression, trauma and dissociations that require more advanced training. As an ACC therapist, I help people thrive after sexual abuse, childhood abuse or neglect, and family violence. I also enjoy working with private clients to navigate the challenges that come withprofessional and business success.

I am a registered Creative Arts Therapist and an inner work and mental well-being facilitator. I support people in finding clarity, peace, growth, new perspectives, and possibilities. I use creative, expressive and mindfulness processes to support exploring, expressing and transforming stressful thoughts, limiting core beliefs, feelings, conflicts and emotions. My process delivers this exploration in a gentle, safe and supportive way.

Now open to new clients, visit my personal website for detailed info and my availability. While being a human isn’t always easy, there are ways to make it easier and more fulfilling - anyone can learn to make significant improvements to their lives and relationships with insight, new tools, a bit of humour, and the right support. I particularly enjoy working with people who experience anxiety or are too hard on themselves, and anyone ready and willing to do the work of making changes to patterns that no longer serve them.

Greetings. My name is Hamish and I'm here to support you in making peace with anxiety and strong emotions. My modality is a "bottom-up" therapy, based on awareness of emotions in the body. We can spend our lives avoiding, resisting, and guarding against unpleasant feelings and situations. My invitation is for you to find a safe, supported space, where you can learn to be present with your emotions, without feeling overwhelmed. You will learn to pivot from distress to calm, without ignoring difficult feelings, to relax and move THROUGH difficult emotions, and you will take the lead in your own healing.

I have a special interest in providing longer term psychotherapy for those willing to commit to exploration of what is happening for them currently, how they have become the person they are, while considering what has happened in the past. The intention is toward better understanding and acceptance of one’s self, thus developing increased security and improved relationships with others. In particular I am interested in the nature of relationships, both in the present, and how these have been influenced by past events.

My role as a counsellor is to work in collaboration with clients towards a journey of self-enlightenment and personal growth. I offer an empathetic, supportive and non-judgmental space. I use a person-centred approach to counselling where I incorporate different counselling techniques such as; CBT, Attachment, Development and Solution-focused counselling in order to best support my clients. I also am a certified prepare/enrich facilitator. Sessions are aimed at identifying specific goals (roadmap) that we can work on together. Goals provide greater direction and focus for counselling, as well as ensuing that expectations are met.

Reaching out for support can be frightening. Perhaps you have never engaged with a counsellor, had a negative experience, or are needing to find a new counsellor, whatever your individual experience, it can be daunting. I am here to support you and make the process as comfortable as possible. Perhaps there is something specific you are wanting improve, like relationships, stress, depression, or anxiety. Maybe you require a safe space to explore what is happening for you, or some things that have happened in the past. I provide a safe, confidential, judgement-free space for you to unpack and explore whatever feels important.

I offer a warm, accepting, and confidential space where you feel listened to. I have experience supporting people with wide-ranging issues including; relationship challenges, feeling disconnected, navigating life changes, loss, identity struggles, and low self-worth; and people who identify as highly sensitive or neurodiverse. Psychotherapy allows us to explore why we feel and behave the way we do and can help us learn to manage our emotions. Developing an understanding of ourselves and our patterns can give us new perspectives, help us make meaningful changes, and may help us accept things we can’t change.

We all have times in life when we suffer and feel daunted by the challenges ahead or what has happened in the past. You might be feeling depressed, anxious, lonely, grieving or experiencing relationship issues. Painful feelings, thoughts and behaviours may be troubling you. I understand that life is a journey, and at times it can be difficult to work out the way forward without the right help.

I empower people to make productive changes in their life. I work within the unique physical, mental, and emotional contexts of an individual, but pay particular attention to working through mental and emotional blocks that keep people from living a life full of health, vitality, and happiness. The core of what I do is reconnecting clients with their body so that they learn how to listen to their body and the wisdom it has to offer. We may not always like what we find there, but getting into our body transforms the way we relate to our mind, body, and the world.

I am a registered educational psychologist with an interest in the emotional well-being of young people. My clients are young people who wish to manage their emotional responses such as anxiety and stress. I also work with children’s parents and teachers to design support for children. A key focus for me when working with young people, their families and their schools is the creation of safe and respectful environments for everyone involved.
