Welcome,
I am a psychotherapist based in Green Bay, Auckland. I work with adults in person and online.
I help people to liberate themselves from patterns of thinking and behaviour that are making them feel stuck and miserable.
Experience tells me that psychotherapy can reduce suffering and help us move towards a life that has increased freedom and connection with others.
I have supported people to overcome difficulties such as:
- Feeling overwhelmed by anger
- Dreading social situations, and generalised anxiety
- Burnt out by work
- Relationship difficulties
- Struggling with academic study
- Lacking confidence and feeling depressed
- Problems associated with sex, infidelity, sexual orientation, and gender transition
- Addictions to food, drugs, gambling, or alcohol
- Conflicted relationship with family
- Lack of direction in life
- Dealing with death or suicide
- Feeling burdened by shame or guilt
- Major life transitions, such as leaving home, career change, marriage, childbirth, and retirement
- Parenting, sole-parenting, step-parenting, first-time parent
- Struggles with creative expression
