About Me
I am a Relationship Therapist working with couples and individuals, supporting them to find their way through life’s challenges and the difficulties they face in relationships. I assist clients to develop their goals for therapy; find long-term solutions to their problems and explore new possibilities as they move into preferred ways of being. By employing a variety of approaches I help clients re-engage and connect with each other, improve their communication skills, develop emotional and sexual intimacy, repair relationship hurts and build stronger more sustainable relationships.
