about me

I am a Registered Psychotherapist and a Counsellor. I am a member of New Zealand Association of Psychotherapists, New Zealand Association of Counsellors.

As a trained teacher, I have been involved in adult education since 1976. In 1980 I began initiating and leading groups for adults in personal growth and assertiveness. I combined this with a six-year apprenticeship style training in psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy with a senior New Zealand Psychologist and Psychotherapist.

I have also completed a three year course in Theories of Psychotherapy at Ashburn Clinic and a Diploma in Gestalt Psychotherapy. I have twenty five years experience as a counsellor and psychotherapist. I am also a Certified Imago Therapist.

Specialisations include counselling and psychotherapy for:

  • relationship issues, including sexuality
  • depression, anxiety, low self-esteem
  • sexual, emotional and physical abuse
  • crisis management
  • grief-related issues
  • mind/body connections with physical symptoms
