Her work covers a wide range of concerns including anxiety, relationship and parenting worries, grief, trauma and abuse, and career difficulties.
She pays attention to issues linked to adoption and foster care, domestic violence, family of origin issues, and experiences of prejudice and discrimination.

Online support
Client-centred therapy centres on listening and acceptance. The therapist offers a non-judgemental space where people can speak freely and be heard, helping with depression, low self-esteem and life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That might mean mixing listening, motivational interviewing and practical coaching to create a personalised plan.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation and are useful when visual connection matters. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging allow brief, ongoing contact and can fit around busy schedules or when writing feels easier than speaking.
Registered and accredited professionals use these options to make therapy more accessible and to match the way people prefer to work.
