We can all be challenged from time to time regulating our emotional state. It can be a struggle to articulate whats going on for us and thats where it help's to talk and explore whats going on. Sometimes however, it is difficult to open up to family and friends, particularly when you are experiencing anxiety, depression, personal or work related stress or family/relationship concerns. As a Clinical and International Psychotherapist, I offer relief by providing emotional support, psycho-education and the ability to truly hear and challenge what is going on for you via flexible appointments, both in Person, Telehealth or Telephone.

Counselling done differently! It's important to me to take the 'clinical' aspect out of counselling, and I strive to provide a safe, non-judgement space to support my clients. You'll be welcomed into an understanding space that not only accepts but celebrates who you are, while building your unique strengths and resilience. My goal is to assist my clients to work through their thoughts and emotions to gain clarity as they move forward to their preferred future. I believe my job is to facilitate your own innate ability to grow and evolve.

As a person who has always been drawn to the power of healing in relationship, I bring with me a warm & relational presence that welcomes all parts of you & you and I, into the shared space. My integrative & collaborative approach to therapy acknowledges the inter-relationship of the mind, body, spirit & how such elements intelligently respond to the external field involving humans, Country & community. I work from & through a humanistic, trauma- informed, polyvagal, gestalt, somatic, neuroscience & attachment theory lens. This means safety, relationality & body attunement guide the direction & pace of the session.

I am very privileged to work with clients who are interested in their self growth and development. Most of the time when people come to see a psychologist they are wanting to have some change in their life and they need the space to talk through their issues. I love providing a safe, confidential place for people to explore the difficulties and life experiences that have been challenging for them.

Their motivation stems from a deep yearning for a life that aligns with their true essence. A life characterized by authenticity, connection, and purpose. They recognize that embarking on the journey of self-discovery and healing may be challenging, but they are willing to invest the time, effort, and vulnerability required to navigate the complexities of their inner world and emerge stronger and more resilient on the other side. Ultimately, they want to reclaim agency over their lives, cultivate a sense of inner peace and contentment, and embrace the full spectrum of their humanity with courage, compassion, and acceptance.

We all go through hard things, but we don't have to go through them alone. As someone who has benefited greatly from counselling, I know how helpful it can be to have someone walk alongside you as you try to navigate challenges in life. I believe people intuitively know where they need to go and what they need to do to make things better for themselves, but due to the overwhelming pressures in daily life, sometimes we become disconnected from ourself and as a result feel lost, confused, and stuck. Should you decide to work with me, my role would be to guide you back home to yourself so that you can access your own inner wisdom.

Well done on taking a very important step towards realising you don’t need to do this alone. Life is a journey of many ups and downs and the reality we will all be faced with at some point with big challenges along the way. In a world where we are often inundated with information, its often hard to know where to start. Navigating these challenges can be so much smoother if you have someone that isn’t immersed in your story, to assist in guiding your along the way. Kind of like a wingman. That’s where I can assist. It is important to find the right counsellor or therapist. Someone who ‘gets you’.

I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist with an extensive knowledge of working with adults undergoing stress, trauma and crises. I work within a leading edge relational, embodied and psychospiritual context, primarily focused on the unconscious informed by transference and countertransference dynamics. I specialise in working with deep trauma and am skilled at tolerating difficult states, such as profound despair, that, for example, intense self hatred can lead us to. When we lose our own value and meaning in life we can spiral into a black hole.
