My commitment to psychology is driven by my interest in the human experience, and my intrinsic passion for helping others.

With an appreciation for how complex the process of vulnerability can be, I strive to welcome people wherever they are in their readiness for change. In my work as a psychologist, as well as focussing on what brings a person to therapy, I encourage clients to consider the broader themes of their experience. This might include family factors, social connections, or deeper belief systems about themselves and the world.

Through this work I am honoured to see changes in self-regard that occur during the therapeutic process - as well as the sense of security and confidence that can develop over time.

Throughout my career I have gained experience in a wide range of roles, including; crisis support, school-based interventions, inpatient hospital care, residential detox and addiction rehabilitation, and family-centred attachment-focused individual therapy.

This has allowed me to develop different approaches for my work with adults, adolescents and children (8+). I strive to continue learning with an ongoing development of my capacity to provide quality care.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in the belief that everyone is coping the best they can given their unique experiences and current support. My therapeutic values are:

Collaboration - I value sitting with you through the hard stuff and navigating challenges alongside you without judgement.

Trust - I recognise that trust is essential in receiving support. I maintain an approach that prioritises your safety in expressing yourself.

Individuality - I respect your needs by prioritising your perspective, maintaining your viewpoint as a core element in the process.

The modalities I draw from include:

• Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

• Motivational Interviewing (MI)

• Relapse Prevention for Addictions

• Attachment-based therapies

My hobbies include running, gaming, scuba diving, spending time with friends, and setting reminders to water my plants.
