I believe there is nothing more rewarding than standing alongside someone as they gain success, one step at a time, over difficulties that they thought were too big to ever overcome and I would love to have the honour of doing this with you.
My current focus is in providing support to women and their partners experiencing difficulties in early parenthood. Whether you are thinking about starting a family, experiencing difficulties falling pregnant, experienced the loss of your baby, or are adjusting to the arrival of a baby, I will support you with compassion, respect and safety.
My goal as a therapist is to provide you with a safe space to explore your needs, understand your emotions, and draw upon your strengths as you adjust to the unique changes and challenges of this important time in your life and that of your family.
