About Jack
I'm a clinical psychologist with nine years of experience helping people navigate mental health difficulties. After four years working at Hillmorton Hospital with Te Whatu Ora, I moved into private practice in early 2022. My areas of focus and expertise include anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, adult ADHD, neurodiversity, and trauma. I am an accredited EMDR practitioner for those carrying the weight of difficult trauma experiences, and I'm also ACC accredited. Everything I do is evidence-based, drawing on CBT, ACT, and EMDR therapies. Above all, I aim to create a space where you feel safe and supported enough to make real progress.

Following a diagnosis of ADHD by a clinical psychologist, medication can be accessed through your GP or nurse practitioner, both of whom are able to prescribe stimulant medication for adults with ADHD. For more information on accessing medication after your assessment, visit this page.
