I walk alongside people in tender times, after loss, breakups, big changes, new beginnings, and the messy in-between. My special interests are grief, transitions, relationship dynamics, and sexuality

About Me

I do not work to fix you. I work to help you understand what is asking for your attention. This is a space where symptoms are not treated as problems to eliminate, but as signals with meaning. We slow things down enough to notice patterns, defences, grief, and desire, rather than overriding them with strategies or reassurance. I work relationally and directly, with care and honesty. You can expect curiosity, challenge when needed, and respect for your pace. If you are willing to look beneath what is familiar or stuck, this work can open up more choice, depth, and aliveness. This is not about quick relief. It is about meaningful change..

Approach

Individual Perhaps something no longer fits: an old identity, a familiar role, a way of coping that once worked but now constrains. Individual counselling offers a place to pause and pay attention to what is shifting beneath the surface. I work with how inner life is shaped through relationship, loss, and history. Patterns do not appear out of nowhere. They are learned, adaptive, and often protective, even when they begin to limit freedom. Together, we examine what has been carried forward, what still serves you, and what may be ready to loosen its grip. This work is not about quick fixes or self improvement. It is about developing the capacity to stay present with complexity, to tolerate emotional truth, and to engage life with greater agency. Individual counselling invites a more honest relationship with yourself, and with the choices that shape how you live and relate Bereavement Grief has been a significant part of my personal journey. I lost my sister at the age of seven, my partner at thirty-one, and more recently, my father. These experiences have shaped not only who I am, but also how I practice—with empathy, humility, and a deep respect for the complexity of loss. Grief isn't always tied to death. Life transitions—such as the end of a relationship, shifts in identity, or major life changes—can bring their own forms of mourning. Whether you're processing personal loss or relational change, counselling can provide space to reflect, heal, and move forward. Relationships In relationship, I view conflict as a natural part of connection. What matters most is not whether we disagree, but how we find our way back to each other. Repair, reconnection, and understanding are essential to lasting intimacy. I help partners navigate these moments with compassion and clarity. While I don’t have all the answers, I do know the terrain. Together, we can work to find meaning, resilience, and a path forward.
