ABOUT ME

I am a clinical counsellor with a diverse professional background and extensive experience working with adults navigating complex personal and relational challenges. 

My approach is collaborative, structured, and change-oriented. Therapy is purposeful work — grounded in psychological insight and focused on sustainable movement.

 

Individual Counselling

I work with adults experiencing:

  • Anxiety and Social Anxiety

  • Chronic overthinking and self-doubt

  • Depression and emotional exhaustion

  • Life, relationship and career transitions

  • Identity shifts and cross-cultural adjustment

Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable individuals who function well outwardly yet feel internally strained or disconnected. Our work focuses on identifying the cognitive, emotional, and relational patterns that maintain distress and developing practical strategies for regulation, confidence, and clarity.

​

Couples Counselling

I work with couples navigating:

  • Communication breakdown

  • Recurrent conflict

  • Emotional distance

  • Trust concerns

  • Transition periods (parenthood, career shifts, relocation)

My approach integrates attachment-based and structured relational models to help partners better understand their interaction cycles, regulate reactivity, and rebuild emotional connection. Therapy is active and skill-focused, aimed at creating measurable improvements in how partners communicate and relate.

​

I integrate evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Solution-Focused Therapy, and existential frameworks. Treatment is guided by clinical formulation and tailored to each client’s goals.

​​

Clients describe my style as steady, insightful, and appropriately challenging. I value depth and reflection, but also clarity and practical skill development. The goal of therapy is durable change — greater emotional regulation, stronger relationships, and increased confidence in navigating both inner and outer worlds.

My work is grounded in current psychological research and adheres to professional ethical standards.​​​
