I bring warmth, compassion, insightfulness and humour to my work as a relationship counsellor and psychotherapist. I work relationally and collaboratively to help clients develop deeper self-connection and self-awareness of their own process as well as how they impact others. I also specialise in trauma work and reconnecting to your inner child.

I use a Relational Gestalt Therapy framework, which pays attention to process and phenomena not just content. Gestalt therapy is non-pathologizing at its heart, as it seeks to understand how a behaviour makes sense, given the context and conditions from which it originally arose, and the resources and supports that were available. I also incorporate aspects of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help individuals and couples make deeper and more meaningful connections with self and others.

My ideal client or couple are those who are motivated to grow and evolve, and for whom a strong relational connection is important. I help bring about organic change and growth for those wanting more depth and richness in their lives.
