She works in South Canterbury and is also available via video call NZ wide.

Areas of interest and expertise:

• Individual Therapy for:
  • Women’s health; sexual pain, vaginismus; endometriosis; perimenopause…
  • Teenage girls (sex education, awareness of their bodies, vaginismus and pelvic pain…)
  • LGBTQ+ people.
  • The complexities faith-based messaging can have on leading a fulfilling and healthy sex life and relationship.
  • The impact of trauma on sexuality
• I do not offer couples work at this time. 

Sex Therapy and Sex Education has become a real passion of mine in recent years. I consider working in partnership with people to find solutions to important, challenging and painful issues to be a real privilege. My professional experience is in Social Work with children, families and adults since 2011 and in 2019 I began working as a therapist. 

I currently work in the areas of sexual trauma, sex education for caregivers and supporting adults around sexualised behaviours in children. 

I am currently engaged in the Advanced Sex Therapy Training that STNZ offer. I see sex and relationships as being things that are impacted by many factors and utilise the bio-pyscho-social model in assessment. I come from a Person-Centred Therapy model, and use trauma informed, brain development, somatic approaches and CBT in my work. My strengths as a therapist are being approachable and real, bringing myself as a human being to the therapy space.

I look forward to hearing from you and working side by side together.
