I believe in a gentle, holistic approach to mental health, recognising that each person’s journey is unique. I take the time to understand your individual needs, goals, and experiences, offering a compassionate space where healing, growth, and transformation can take place.

My focus is on building trust and empowering you to take an active role in your well-being.

Services

  • Therapy

    Therapy offers a safe and supportive space to explore emotional, mental, and behavioural challenges. With a compassionate approach, personalised sessions help navigate life’s difficulties, build resilience, and develop healthier coping strategies.

  • Scholastic and Psychometric Assessments

    Scholastic and psychometric assessments are tools used to evaluate a person’s cognitive abilities, academic strengths, and challenges. These assessments help identify areas where additional support may be needed, such as in developmental disabilities, ADHD, or intellectual development.

  • Online Therapy

    Online therapy provides a safe, flexible, and convenient way to access compassionate professional support from the comfort of your own space. This option is ideal for individuals who may not be able to attend face-to-face sessions, allowing you to work on your mental well-being from anywhere.
