Registered Clinical Psychologist Experienced in Supporting Change Compassionately

I offer ACC sensitive claims and Mental Injury Assessments, Professional Supervision and Training Workshops (live and via zoom).

As an Accredited EMDR Practitioner I have worked for several decades with clients experiencing the effects of trauma. My specialism in this field has enabled me to support a range of other providers across several disciplines. I am no longer offering any new therapy spaces but continue to offer supervision/consultations, training and assessments (effective from February 2024).

My specialist areas are Trauma, Dissociation and Non-Suicidal Self-Injury using the APEX© model which I have designed.

My professional training is available via GROW Limited.

Sorry NO FURTHER availability for therapy referrals

Please note, as part of a gradual retirement plan, I am no longer offering therapy to new clients as from February 2024. See next page on ways to obtain help.

Whakatauki (Māori saying)

To me this whakatauki captures Te Tiriti o Waitangi principles to guide me in my mahi:

Nā tō rourou, nā taku rourou ka ora ai te iwi
With your food basket and my food basket the people will thrive.
