About me
Healing, Growth & Connection—For Individuals and Couples
Do you feel stuck in recurring relationship conflicts, struggling with trust, or disconnected from your partner?
Maybe you're carrying emotional wounds from the past, experiencing anxiety, or feeling unfulfilled in life. Whatever brings you here, know that you don’t have to navigate it alone.
As a counselling psychologist with 15+ years of experience, I specialize in helping individuals and couples heal from past pain, break unhelpful patterns, and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Through a warm, attachment focused compassionate approach, I offer integrative therapy that is tailored to your needs to explore emotions, gain clarity, and develop tools to create lasting change.
It is time for you to live the life you were meant to live! Contact for a FREE 15 min phone or online consultation to discuss how therapy could help you. Book your free consultation on my website. I look forward to hearing from you!
