About me

My practice
I am a registered Gestalt and ACT therapist with 10 years experience in the community mental health sector and private practice. I have extensive experience in the areas of addiction and eating disorders, anxiety, depression, parenting and life transition issues, moderate trauma and self -esteem/ motivation issues. My therapeutic style is compassionate, explorative, supportive and creative. My approach in therapy is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, empathetic environment where you will be validated, supported and gently challenged. It is my hope that through our contact personal awareness will be deepened, areas where you feel "stuck" will be explored with curiosity, compassion, and empathy. Resulting in greater clarity, perspective, authenticity, freedom and flexibility in your experience of life and relationships
