My Approach

The purpose of meeting is not to take sides, blame anyone, or provide simple answers. It is rather, an opportunity to attend to relationships by sharing experience, building on strengths and exploring a way forward that works better for the relationships involved. This is done with respect for people’s different beliefs, ethnicities, Cultures, sexualities and life experiences.

About Me

Hello, I am a family therapist and therapist supervisor, trained to work with individuals, couples and families. In addition I am EFCT (Emotion Focussed Couple Therapy) trained.
When significant stress arises it can have an adverse impact on our identity and relationships. It can cause distress, uncertainty and dilemmas. Communication can be difficult, making decisions and building trust challenging. It is at these vulnerable times that a family therapist can offer a safe, non judgmental, supportive space to think things through and rebuild meaningful connections. I offer a relationship based therapy that helps people understand themselves better as well as the people they care about.
In my 34 years of work experience I have met people from diverse backgrounds and circumstances seeking support on a variety of issues including: depression / anxiety / relationship conflict / couple or family issues / parenting support / neuro-diversity issues ( ADHD / ASD ) / trauma / attachment difficulties / significant loss / grief.
