About Me/Bio
I am a New Zealand born and trained Clinical Health Psychologist who has lived and worked in Dubai for many years. I help adults, with or without illness, to cope with stress, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, grief and lifestyle management. My specialty lies in helping adults and older children / teenagers with cancer: coping with the initial shock of a diagnosis; management of surgery and side effects of treatment (radiotherapy and chemotherapy); and navigation of personal and family issues resulting from diagnosis and prognosis.
I see both Inpatients and Outpatients (with family members if requested), do Telehealth, and am based in both Oncology as well as in Psychiatry / Behavioral Health departments of the hospital. I primarily utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Please feel free to reach out!
