I provide my clients with a safe and non-judgemental space to be vulnerable, to be honest with yourself and to be brave. My experience as a psychologist has been in the public and private sector, including a specialty background of working with forensic clients (e.g., victims of crime, child protection referrals, and those who’ve been convicted of crime). I have over 7+ years’ experience in trauma-informed care with individuals and families. When I work with families, I believe in collaborating with parents to help them feel empowered in supporting their child to navigate emotional and behavioural challenges.

From early childhood, I felt that I was “weird” and other people were mostly “normal”. This overwhelmed me, affecting almost every aspect of my life. I tried to find a way to live with the endless debates inside my own head. Some strategies were helpful and others not so much. I have at last begun to realise that “normal” comes in a variety of flavours: I am not “weird” so much as a “rare and unusual flavour of normal”. Mostly I’m ok with that, although I’m definitely still a work in progress. I may be unique, but I’m not the only person who has ever struggled to find acceptance, purpose, motivation and direction.
