About Me

I’m a trained social worker and counsellor with over 20 years of experience supporting people through difficult times, uncertainty and change.

​

My approach is practical, compassionate and tailored to you. I don’t believe counselling is a one-size-fits-all process. Together, we can make sense of what’s happening, identify what might be keeping you stuck, and work towards the changes that matter to you.

​

​My Philosophy

​"The person is not the problem. The problem is the problem".

​

I believe you are more than the difficulties you’re experiencing. The challenges you face don’t define who you are.

​

​My role is to work alongside you, without judgement, to understand the problem, recognize your strengths, and find ways forward that work for you.

 

​I aim to provide a relaxed, down-to-earth space where you can be yourself and talk openly.
