About me
At Reach Out I aim to provide a place where you feel safe and secure to explore counselling. A place where you are accepted, for who you are and where you are in this journey called life. All of us should feel worthy and of value whatever the issue. I will help you in a trauma informed manner, helping equip you to feel safe. I work with individuals dealing with all of life's struggles but particularly welcome those who struggle with pornography or problematic sexual behaviours. I also work with individuals from a Christian perspective where faith is important to them.

I have over 30 years of public service helping individuals dealing with trauma and life's difficulties. If you are struggling with anxiety or depression; trying to manage the demands of work and home life I am here to help, to work alongside you to find solutions. I work with individuals who have problematic sexual behaviours, including porn/sex addictions and their partners, in a trauma informed way to understand the behaviour or help guide a path through the chaos that has been left behind.
