I am a Christian counsellor with a Grad Dip in Counselling, and a MA in Applied Developmental Psychology. I do especially have an interest in working with those from cross-cultural or expat backgrounds, children, teens, foster and adoptive families, and those from ministry backgrounds.

You do not have to be a Christian to work with me. I respect people from all backgrounds and beliefs.

I do telehealth only. Clients are able to attend appointments from anywhere in the world except the USA and Canada, so long as you have a good internet connection and a device with a working camera and microphone.

I draw from CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy), which focuses on how our thoughts as well as our behaviors can interact and affect each other and our mental and physiological health. CBT works well for many common life issues, such as insomnia or anxiety. I also have knowledge of and may draw from other theories, including but not limited to Adlerian, psychodynamic (which was foundational for much of attachment theory today!), and solutions focused. However, again, my focus will likely be CBT, depending on the issues you want to work on.

I have an interest in and have explored the effects of trauma on human functioning and brain development, and am continually working on becoming more informed and continuing my education in trauma and somatic therapy such as somatic experiencing (Peter Levine, Abi Blakeslee). I do not have any qualifications in somatic experiencing, but I have an interest in it and am learning more.
