About

I’m a registered psychologist with almost 20 years of experience helping people improve their wellbeing, cope with health challenges, and make meaningful, lasting changes in their lives.

I work with adults facing a wide range of concerns — from managing stress, anxiety, and low mood to adjusting to chronic illness, pain, or major life changes. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I draw on evidence-based methods such as cognitive-behavioural therapy, mindfulness, and solutions-focused therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals.

Over the years, I’ve supported clients in hospital, community, and private practice settings, always with the same aim: to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take steps toward better health and a more fulfilling life.

If you’re looking for a safe, supportive space to explore your challenges and discover new ways forward, I’d be honoured to work alongside you.
