My focus in therapy is creating a respectful space where your life can change for the better. If you want to confront something problematic, I am here to listen to and support you through whatever it may be. I have many years of experience as a practising therapist and have worked with various issues with men, women, and youth. I offer an open, caring space for you to take the time you need to achieve your goals.
A view from the window
I am client-led, meaning sessions are defined by what you bring to therapy. I am fully qualified in an integrative approach, which allows me to use different interventions based on what is most helpful to your specific needs. I will be committed to helping you find what you need from our sessions together.
If you would like to reach out to me, I offer a free 15-minute meet and greet; we can use this opportunity to discuss what you would like to work on, how many sessions you would like and whether you feel comfortable with me. Let me know your preferred times, I'll work to offer times that suit you.

I work from a solution-focused/strength-based approach to therapy and integrate other approaches when appropriate and helpful. The solution-focused theory is based on the philosophy that we will spend time together focusing on solutions to problems or issues and discovering the resources and strengths a person already has within them to help develop themselves.
