Key note statement: I believe a wise and hopeful part of you is reading this because you have decided to come to therapy and despite being a bit anxious (naturally), you want me to truly get to know you, so that together we can help you reach your goals. I will support this process by providing emotional safety for the journey of gently facing aspects you might have been protecting by avoiding. The unconscious has quite a bit of influence on your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, but when you get curious about yourself, in a non-judgemental and self accepting way, when you identify what interferes with your ability to be intimate with other people and have communication and connectedness replace loneliness and isolation then the barriers to a fully rewarding and emotionally connected life can unfold.

I have over forty years of people helping experience and have been a psychotherapist since 1999.

Specialist interest and training:

  • Relationships, Intimacy and Sexuality: In 2012 I completed the Foundation Course in Sexuality and Intimacy offered by Sex Therapy NZ. I'm interested in early life experiences and attachment and the myriad ways people can express themselves including sexless marriages.
  • Adult ADHD and AuHD: Recently I have been helping many highly sensitive neurodivergent adults who have realised they were undiagnosed for many years and their attendant grief that may accompany that.
  • Body and Mind: In 1987 I graduated from the South Pacific College of Natural Therapeutics as a Naturopath. I am aware that the body does a fair bit of communicating for us, to us, so I will be listening to your symptoms and we can keep in mind the interconnectedness of all things and help move your system towards good health.
  • Animal Assisted Psychotherapy: I am qualified with EAGALA but not offering equine therapy at present, however Felix, my little Fox Terrier, usually sits in with us during sessions and can be relied upon to add extra warmth to your welcome.
