Not only has he been able to understand my issues, he's also been able to understand a strategy that I will be able to understand aswell.

Peter O'Toole - MSc, BA, BA, PgDip, MBACP
I have experience working with clients across a diverse range of issues and challenges. My approach to therapy is one of collaborative exploration, where together the challenges and feelings you might be experiencing can be safely and thoughtfully considered and understood.
It is through this exploration I believe therapy can help to build and restore our relationships with others and also, perhaps most importantly, with ourselves, creating an opportunity for growth and greater meaning in our lives.
With a multi-disciplinary background in psychology, psychotherapy and counselling, I endeavour to bring an open, unbiased and flexible approach to each of my clients and their therapy needs.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
