It’s always nice to know a bit more about the person you are about to work closely with on your mental health journey, so here is a bit more about me. I completed my clinical psychology training with the University of Wollongong working within the public health and NGO sectors working with children, adolescents, adults, and families experiencing mental health distress. I am quite excited to bring my skills and experience to the private sector with the Inner Calm team.

Trauma can make us feel lost, hopeless, and disconnected from ourselves and others. You might notice that you keep falling into harmful patterns. Even though you want to form meaningful relationships, you might push people away or end up in relationships that cause pain. You want to understand your reactions and feel more in control of your life. You're ready to make better choices about treating yourself and others. You want to break free from cycles of trauma and abuse. You believe there’s something better for you—you need help to find it.
