About Us

I am a Waiuku-based mental health service provider. My training and experience is in clinical psychology, though I have now retired from that role. I have worked in community and inpatient mental health services, and contracted to ACC for the past 22 years. My expertise is in chronic pain management, mood disorder and trauma.

Approach

Drawing on two decades working in adult mental health, therapy begins with careful listening and shared goal-setting. Appointments are offered in person or online, in English or Afrikaans. Therapy, from my perspective, is a conversation, paced to support and investigate. We talk about what’s not working and look for strategies to ease your way. We track progress, practise brief mindfulness and grounding exercises, and test practical skills between sessions so progress feels tangible. This way of working suits people wanting steady, practical steps through pain, low mood or traumatic memories.

Services

Mindfulness: Mindfulness has become a recognised part of pain and mood management programs. It is also an excellent way of managing stress. Learning basic mindfulness and/or meditation skills enhances a person's skill at managing emotions, which affect mood and pain. Therapeutic services aim to teach self-sufficiency to manage independently. Cognitive Therapy: When we become aware of our thoughts about ourself, others and experiences, we can change negative or unhelpful thoughts. We all have rules and beliefs we live by. Though these may accurately reflect an experience, it sometimes doesn’t. Thoughts are influenced by our emotions and expectation. Sometimes it causes us to respond to experiences and people in well-practice, though unhelpful ways. Being aware of thoughts enables a person to evaluate and adjust so that we do not repeat old, unhelpful habits.
