With over six years of clinical experience in Perth, Australia, I have worked extensively with individuals facing a wide range of challenges in the realm of mental health. My expertise spans complex behaviours, schizophrenia, anxiety disorders, ADHD, Intellectual Disability, trauma, and self-identity issues. I am passionate about helping clients overcome these obstacles and regain control over their lives. I'm a dedicated and experienced Clinical Counsellor with a deep background in psychology. I hold a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Psychology from the UK and a Master's degree in Counselling from Australia.
My approach to counselling is eclectic, drawing from various therapeutic modalities to tailor the treatment to your unique needs. I incorporate techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy, Experiential Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, and Existential Therapy to provide a holistic and effective therapeutic experience.
I am genuinely dedicated to working closely with my clients, guiding them towards restoring their lives and taking control of their emotions and their unique life journeys. I firmly believe in the power of compassion-focused and positive psychology approaches to help individuals achieve their mental health goals.
