With over 13 years of experience as a School Counsellor in high schools, I've had the privilege of working closely with students, educators, and families to support both academic and emotional growth. I have nurtured a deep passion for mental well-being and a strong belief in the power of human connection.

I believe that everyone has the potential to thrive and that mental health is a key component of living a fulfilling life. I am dedicated to helping individuals identify their unique strengths, discover their true purpose, and live more meaningful and joyful lives. My approach is grounded in a collaborative, evidence-based framework that prioritises safety, trust, and compassion, ensuring that every person feels valued and supported on their journey. I use a variety of techniques to help clients navigate their challenges with confidence and hope.

I believe every interaction is an opportunity to connect meaningfully and intentionally, fostering a deeper sense of understanding and growth. With a deep commitment to mental well-being, I am driven by the belief that positive change begins with understanding and embracing one’s own value, capabilities, and goals.

I am a client-focused therapist dedicated to helping individuals live meaningful, value-driven lives. My approach fosters positive, purposeful change by empowering clients to align their actions with their core values.

As Aristotle said, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” This belief is the foundation of my work, guiding individuals to deepen self-awareness and unlock their full potential.

With over a decade of experience supporting both male and female elite athletes, I have honed my skills in helping people achieve success not only in sports but also in life. I specialise in developing a positive mindset, fostering meaningful relationships, and helping clients find and maintain their sense of purpose.

I take a collaborative, solution-focused approach in a warm, safe environment where clients feel heard, supported, and respected. Using evidence-based strategies, I work with clients to address mental health challenges, including stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, self-esteem, and goal-setting. Together, we build tools for resilience and growth, ensuring lasting, positive change.
