If any of this resonates, you don’t have to keep struggling alone. I’m here to help.

How Can I Help?

Relationship counselling isn’t just for couples. If you’re currently single or an individual in a relationship, you can also benefit from counselling to resolve your issues.

Whether you're in a relationship or navigating life on your own, counselling can help you create real and lasting change. Many of my clients come to me as individuals wanting to understand their patterns, heal from past hurt, and build healthier connections. Others come as couples ready to rebuild trust and reconnect. Whatever brings you here, you're in the right place.

Couples Counselling

Are you tired of fighting with your partner about the same issues with no resolution in sight?

Do you long for the loving, harmonious relationship you once had?

Are you feeling hurt, disconnected, or like the trust between you has broken down?

Using evidence-based approaches, including PACT and the Gottman Method, I help couples reconnect, rebuild intimacy, and rediscover the relationship they truly want.

Whether you’re dealing with infidelity, communication breakdown, or simply feeling like you’ve grown apart, I can help you find a way forward.

Individual Counselling

Are you exhausted by the dating scene and relationships that never seem to go anywhere?

Do you wonder if you’ll ever find a loving, lasting relationship?

Are you tired of repeating the same painful patterns and wondering what keeps getting in the way?

Whether you’re single or in a relationship, I work with individuals using evidence-based approaches including Feedback-Informed Treatment (FIT) to help you heal from past hurt, understand your blocks to intimacy, and build the skills for a healthy, lasting relationship.

Change is possible. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.

You deserve a relationship that feels good. Counselling can help you get there.

What My Clients Say

Here are comments past clients have said about their work with me

“I’ve appreciated the counselling I have received. The encouragement, warmth, focus and intelligent empathy were most helpful. It helped me through a difficult period. I think you provide a very worthwhile service.”

“I found it very helpful to be able to discuss issues openly and fully in the presence of a very skilled counsellor– who was able to guide my partner and I to resolve the main issue we sought help regarding. I felt we were at a stalemate or crossroads in our relationship and how we were moving forward. I will be making another appointment as soon as required! Many thanks.”

“Thank you for the sessions before our wedding. While we didn’t think our issues were so big we shouldn’t be getting married, the sessions really brought us together and helped us sort out some important issues before the wedding. Our wedding day was magical and we both felt so close, it was awesome! We’ll be back if we need any help in the future.”

“We found our sessions exceedingly useful and worthwhile. I have regained a new sense of purpose. We have plenty to work with from what we have already covered. I think you do a great job.”

“Thank you for helping me through such an awful time. I know we are all better off because I reached out and got support when I needed it the most. I still have good and bad days, but the bad days are less frequent and overall I’m feeling optimistic about my new future. Thanks for everything.”
