Because of having a diverse career background meeting a great deal of people from all walks of life & sharing in their various stages of life journey, including a full range of 'failure's' and successes, I continue to geniunely find people interesting and feel compassion for their struggles. This now means that although I have many 'specialty' areas that I can support people in dealing with, I can also assist with a wide range of life issues...making me somewhat of a 'generalist' Counselling therapist and Professional Clinical Supervisor with 'specialties' including Trauma Informed Yoga Therapy. It certainly makes my working day anything but boring, as I continue to meet & support many wonderful people facing difficult life challenges!

I am deeply interested in how early relationships shape who we become, how we can get stuck in developmental stages, and how those patterns impact us as adults. I am also fascinated by the human capacity for both love and loss - how we can have painful, even toxic relationships with those we care about most, yet still be capable of healing, growth, and transformation. My work focuses on helping clients make sense of their experiences, break free from limiting patterns, and use even the most painful moments as a foundation for personal growth.

I am interested in helping others find peace. While I love to help all people in counselling, I am also interested in helping men find freedom from their addictions, and in helping children and youth in their self-image, overcoming bullying and rejection and in their skills in relating to others.

Iâ??m interested in the emotional and psychological aspects of the human journey. Especially how people make meaning in the face of adversity and heal from relational wounds. My focus is on helping individuals work through experiences like anxiety, grief, trauma, and major life transitions. Iâ??m drawn to the parts of the human journey that ask us to pause, reflect, and grow - moments that can feel disorienting, but are often deeply transformative. I believe these challenges, when met with curiosity, can lead to greater self-understanding, resilience, and connection.

Gut health - it is intrinsically aligned with our overall wellbeing and in particular, mental health... For a healthy body, it does need to be holistic... a poor diet and counselling can only reach so far in the successful outcome... and indeed, a healthy body and poor state of mind will also fall short of the ultimate and optimum 'you'.

As above, I am interested primarily in the development of secure attachment. This is foundational for psychotherapy and counselling, as it is where and how the therapy is possible. This doesn't mean we are not working on any area of my clients' lives. It does not mean that my clients are not challenged. But if there is a significant rupture or missattunement, we always come back to the relationship through repair. This is the only way I will work with my clients. I believe it is necessary to attend to shame and trauma in a safe and trusting relationship. Relational hurt and trauma requires relational healing.

I am most interested in transformative turning points in our lives. It is intriguing to examine both how we influence power over our lives and also how the events in our lives change who we are. Births, deaths, starting and ending relationships - these all influence who we become. I have also conducted research on how traumatic experiences influences our spiritual and existential beliefs

I have a particular interest in Attachment Theory; how our attachment style plays out in our life; how it affects our relationships; our interaction with others; our ability to connect. I am also interested in how our Attachment style affects our susceptibility to addiction, and the underlying causes and trauma that triggers addiction in the first place.

Iâ??m interested in the complexities of human emotion, particularly how we heal from past trauma and how our early relationships shape our sense of self and our ability to navigate lifeâ??s challenges. Iâ??m fascinated by how the brain and body interact, especially in terms of stress, attachment, and recovery. Additionally, Iâ??m curious about the process of self-discoveryâ??helping individuals reconnect with their true selves, strengthen their sense of agency, and cultivate a sense of belonging and purpose. My work is driven by the belief that healing is an ongoing journey that unfolds in connection, awareness, and growth.

I am particularly interested in the changes that people experience as they enter middle-age and more senior life stages. These are often not well articulated in society. Having said this, I am interested in anyone's journey through their life and have recently enjoyed assisting some adolescents cope better with that life stage.
