Hi, I'm Tony

We all fall on hard times. Darkness is part of the human condition, and heartbreak often strikes when we least expect it. The counterbalance is a deep human connection – a helping hand or guiding light. The first step to getting that help is often the hardest, and finding the right person is important.

I see the role of the psychologist as an advocate; a person who sees you, understands you, and provides unconditional support. I see you as the expert of your life and the author of your story. The therapeutic process that unfolds is one where I create a respectful and non-judgemental space for us to work together.

I take an integrative approach, drawing on a wide toolkit of therapeutic techniques to help you explore your inner world in more detail, gain insight into your condition, manage your symptoms, and ultimately get you to the place where you want to be.

Reaching out for help can be daunting but it is a necessary first step – one which you have already taken. It only gets easier from here. I look forward to helping you write the story that you want.
