Specialisations and Expertises

My passion for psychotherapy stems from personal experiences, and my mission is to empower individuals to overcome obstacles and thrive.

With a wealth of experience in wellbeing, mental health,and addictive behaviours, I've contributed across various reputable settings, including Government and Non-Government Organisations.

Grounded in Holistic Integrative Therapy (H.I.T.), I specialise in mental health and wellbeing, offering over 15,000 practice hours and a deep commitment to your mental wellness.

As a registered and insured practitioner, I provide individual and group therapy, fostering collaborative relationships and engaging with multi-agency groups.

My academic journey in Counselling Psychology, Addictive Behaviours and Wellbeing, coupled with professional certifications, ensures the highest standards.

I take pride in the recognition my work has garnered and remain devoted to helping you unlock your well-being.

I am committed to delivering empathetic, non-judgmental, and professional Psychotherapy & Counselling  services.

I firmly believe in your innate ability to thrive and surmount life's challenges, and I'm here to support you in Achieving Your Potential.

Therapy Sessions

  • There is a Initial FREE 30 minutes Consultation 
  • You are free to use the service for as long as you feel necessary.
  • Between the Third and Sixth session, dependent on need, there will be a formal evaluation of the effectiveness of the Therapy Sessions. 
  • The length of therapy is dependent on several factors including need, severity and mode of support (Psychotherpay, Hypnotherapy, EMDR, Coaching, etc.).
  • The Session lengths are 50 minutes and are booked and paid for in advance.

Most common issues I support people with:

Addressing Anxiety, Trauma & Fear
Fear, Trauma, Anxiety, PTSD, Phobias.
Clients feel overwhelmed by worry, panic attacks, or intense fear responses. The focus is often on processing past traumatic events, reducing hyper-vigilance, and developing strategies to manage persistent, intrusive anxiety and specific phobias.

Mood Management & Emotional Regulation
Sadness, Depression, Grief/Loss.
Clients present with persistent low mood, lack of pleasure, and difficulty managing intense sadness or emotional pain. Therapy centers on navigating the stages of grief, building emotional resilience, and restoring motivation and energy lost to depressive cycles.

Behavioral Control & Compulsions
Overcoming Compulsion, Managing Addictive Behaviours.
This involves helping clients gain control over repeated, problematic behaviors, whether they manifest as obsessions/compulsions (OCD-related) or dependence on substances/activities (addictive behaviors). The goal is to identify triggers and establish healthier coping mechanisms.

Self-Efficacy & Personal Growth
Building Confidence, Life - Meaning - Motivation - Stresses and Skills.
Clients struggle with self-doubt, low self-worth, and feeling 'stuck' or lacking direction. The work here focuses on identifying values, clarifying life purpose, developing essential life skills (like stress management), and fostering a strong sense of self-belief and capability.

Relational & Physical Well-being
Improving Relationships, Promoting Restful Sleep.
Clients seek support for improving communication, resolving conflicts, and establishing healthier boundaries in their personal and professional relationships. Additionally, this category addresses the critical link between mental health and physical well-being by improving sleep patterns, which are often disrupted by stress and anxiety.
