Fully Booked/apologies I’m not taking any new clients at this stage.
I care deeply for equality and the well-being of all people and very much enjoy being alongside people’s discoveries and recoveries. I have received training in wholistic approaches to wellness and trauma recovery in areas such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Somatic Therapy and EMDR. I work flexibly with peoples spiritual beliefs and also bring in my background in science and psychology, providing a large scope of my therapeutic practice.
Cultural Experience: I have extensive experience in cross-culturally appropriate counselling and research. Originally from Wales in the UK, I have traveled widely for much of my adult life and enjoyed the colourful beauty of cultural diversity.
Specialist Area: I work predominantly with women who have experienced trauma, people who identify as a woman, queer, non-binary or are transitioning.
Diversity makes for a more beautiful world.
I have worked extensively with women and those who identify as women for the past 6 years. I have held sole Counsellor positions for not for profit organisations supporting women and trans women on low income. I also hold registration with the New Zealand Counsellors Association (NZAC) and ACC sensitive claims working with people who have experienced sexual assault and trauma.
