Taking the first step to reach out and seek care for your mental health is courageous and admirable and not always easy! It is important then that you feel comfortable with your therapist and confident that you will be able to work with them as you move toward healing and achieving your goals.

I am committed to creating a safe, empathic and non-judgmental environment, collaborating with you to explore, understand, and work with your unique needs and therapeutic goals.

I offer in-person psychological counselling in Gold Coast and Byron Bay, plus Telehealth worldwide. Counselling can be an empowering process that supports you to develop a deeper understanding of the areas of life that are preventing you from living a full and enriching life. Many people experience difficulties with truly understanding themselves, why their relationships are stressful or dissatisfying, why they feel they're not succeeding in their work, why they engage in self-defeating behaviour patterns and self-critical ways of thinking. Counselling can help you answer these "whys" and support you in making the necessary changes.
