About Me

Drawing on 56 years dedicated to supporting individuals and couples, I offer a deeply grounded space. I specialise in helping clients find clarity amidst crisis, trauma, LGBTQ+ concerns, grief, and addiction. My extensive experience extends to human rights, gender, and sexuality, ensuring a truly inclusive approach. For urgent needs, I offer emergency and after-hours availability, providing consistent support when it matters most. Here, you'll find a compassionate and knowledgeable guide.

Approach

I use grounded, practical steps, breath and body regulation, clear crisis planning, narrative reflection and task-focused experiments between sessions, to stabilise distress and build new patterns.
