She offers one-to-one therapy sessions and aims to provide a warm, supportive environment where people can disentangle and make sense of their feelings so those emotions no longer overwhelm them and they can move forward in their lives.

Her specialist areas include self-esteem, career issues, depression, coping with life changes, stress, anxiety, LGBT and gay-related matters, relationship difficulties, grief, parenting, anger and compassion fatigue.
