About me
I have been a Registered Nurse for 40 years. Most of my professional career and qualifications are in Mental Health. I have a keen interest in the environment. I enjoy the outdoors and have surfed since I was 14 years.
I value family friendship and respect for individual freedom of expression providing its doesn’t impinge on another rights as an individual. I have an interest in bioethics and its relationship to professional boundaries.
That’s enough about me.
My Approach
The past 15 years I have worked for an Acute Community Mental Health Assessment Team. I have an existential approach to assessment to understand the individuals perspective/weltanschauung. To contextualise the lived experience of the client then discuss therapeutic options. Exploring reactions and potential outcomes.

What is a mental health assessment?
If you are not sure what's troubling you, our nurses will assess you and put you in touch with the right expert.
A mental health assessment is a conversation between you and mental health professionals to help decide what kind of support you need.
A mental health assessment is not a test or an exam, it is about helping you. You only have to talk about what you want to talk about. The more open and honest you are, the easier it will be to get you the right help.
