Philosophy & Vision
I am a psychotherapist and couples counsellor with extensive experience helping individuals and couples. I have an integrated approach, whether it be for help in dealing with a current issue, relationship issues or longer term deeper work for dealing with painful issues from the past.
We all need connection and a sense of being understood. I have over 30 years experience helping individuals create a deep relationship with themselves and helping couples create a secure connection to their partner. A strong bond is a powerful fundament for working through challenges as individuals, and as couples working together.

I provide counselling and psychotherapy to both individuals and couples at my private practice at Newrybar in the Byron Bay hinterland. I also provide sessions via Zoom.
