I am a member of the NZ Association of Counsellors and one of six directors of Counselling and Psychotherapy Associates, based near the bus station in Thorndon, Wellington.

I work full-time, specialising in couples and marriage relationship counselling. I do no individual counselling.

I specialise in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, but I also bring a wide range of other learning, personal development and life experience to my work.

My clients are mostly partners who have somehow become disconnected, often through repeating patterns of bickering and nagging, fighting and withdrawing, or having just grown apart and disconnected - maybe with little or no affection, expressions of love or sexual relationship between them - and sometimes to a point where it feels, to one or both of them, like they are 'trapped' with little hope of anything changing. These patterns are sometimes more acute when there are "blended families" involved.

I also commonly see couples who are dealing with the revelation of one partner having an affair, or some other past relationship injury, seriously threatening their future together.
