Hi, I'm an experienced Psychologist with a passion for helping people function at their best. I provide evidence-based psychological treatment to help people traverse and overcome the difficulties associated with lifes challenges and to build skills and strategies for wellbeing. Tough times, challenges and emotional pain are a part of all our lives. So is achievement, joy and happiness. Mental Health encompasses our ability to understand our struggles (and the causes) and to develop tools to navigate our thoughts and emotions effectively. In doing so we can become more resilient, self-compassionate and live rich, full and meaningful lives. I draw on tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and Attachment Theory. I also have expertise in the related fields of mindfulness and Wellbeing Science (sometimes referred to as Positive Psychology) and have worked with individuals, schools, and businesses in the areas of engagement, resilience and high performance. I offer therapy/ counselling and performance coaching, either face to face or via telehealth.
