Overview

I am a registered psychologist with over 15 years of international experience in clinical practice. I offer collaborative, evidence-based therapy for adolescents and adults, drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). My focus is on supporting clients through life’s challenging moments—when things feel overwhelming, uncertain, or emotionally difficult. I have a particular interest in emotional regulation, decision-making, neuropsychology, and supporting individuals in developing assertiveness and self-awareness aligned with their goals and personal values. I aim to create a welcoming, inclusive space for all clients, including those from diverse cultural backgrounds, the LGBTQIAPN+ community, neurodiverse individuals, and people experiencing mood-related concerns.
