About me
I'm a clinical psychologist with seven years' experience treating mental health difficulties. I worked four years at Hillmorton Hospital with Canterbury District Health Board (Te Whatu Ora), then moved to private practice in early 2022. I have particular expertise in anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and adult ADHD. I also specialise in trauma treatment using EMDR therapy. My client-centred approach creates a safe, compassionate environment where clients can express themselves, develop coping strategies, and work through their challenges.
Adult ADHD Assessments
Available for ADHD Assessments in September 2025
I provide comprehensive psychological assessments for ADHD in adults. I offer both in person and online assessments.
If you live in Canterbury and I diagnose you with ADHD, you'll be able to get medication through your GP. If you live outside Canterbury, you'll need to find a private psychiatrist and use my report to get medication from them.
Assessments cost $1800
