I am registered with the New Zealand Psychologists Board as a counselling psychologist. I am a member of the New Zealand Psychological Society and the World Professional Association for Transgender Health.
My experience providing psychological services is diverse. It includes treating people for anxiety, depression, and many other mental health concerns.
