About me

I am a mental health social worker and psychotherapist with over 30 years’ experience in working with individuals, families and groups. I provide brief and longer term evidence-based therapy to help people understand relational patterns and create positive change in their lives.

I am trained in relational psychotherapy, which I integrate with active strategies to help people regulate their trauma symptoms. I tailor the therapy models I use to suit each person I work with. I work with respect for people and their coping abilities. More about me.
