In Person Counselling in Fitzroy, VIC

I feel passionate about helping people make meaningful, sustainable, and healthy changes in their lives. I aim to work respectfully and collaboratively with people so that clients build their own independence and develop ways to manage life stressors more effectively, in addition to their own thoughts, feelings and behaviours. A comfortable, empathetic and supportive therapeutic relationship is also very important in my approach, and research shows that this is essential in best outcomes for clients. I generally work on a wide range of mental health and life issues and the approaches I work with are all evidence-based interventions.

I currently have availability to take on some new clients. I support individuals with a broad range of clinical needs in a non-judgmental, neuro-affirming and holistic way, utilising evidence based treatments. I provide a nurturing and safe space, and use a strength based, supportive and collaborative approach. My goal is to assist individuals in gaining greater insight and self-awareness, to enhance their emotional well-being, with the aim of supporting individuals to reach their full potential and thrive.

We all experience suffering, and our suffering can be intensified by a multitude of factors unique to each individual. We may feel confused about what exactly is causing our suffering, or we may feel we understand it but nevertheless feel stuck in being able to produce changes. I value working with the whole individual and their many complex facets. My hope for those I support is to suffer less and live more fully.

I aspire to be a warm, engaging and non-judgmental clinical psychologist who is passionate about improving the well-being and growth of my clients. I practice a holistic and empowering approach in therapy to help clients better cope with challenging life situations and reach their potential. I have worked as a clinical psychologist for 13 years, primarily in private clinics. Before becoming a clinical psychologist, I spent several years abroad as a social worker and teaching at universities.

Undertaking therapy is a very personal experience. A person may come to therapy to process complex trauma, work through relationship struggles, or simply desire to get to know and understand themselves more deeply. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, the gifts born from the process of building self-awareness benefit not only you but also those around you who you love. It is profoundly humbling to support my clients to move through adversity, unpack challenging questions, grieve, transition, and move towards wellbeing. I am dedicated to the service of helping people to build agency, inner resources, and stability.

I'm a clinical psychologist working with anxiety, depression, stress, emotional / behavioural dysregulation, shame and trauma. As a queer man, I have a passion for working with the LGBTIQA+ community. I work to create a shared understanding of their current patterns of behaviour and experiences from an attachment, trauma-informed, and developmental lens to heal the parts of themselves that get in the way of them living a meaningful life. I work with people to build up the healthy parts of themselves, learn to ask for their needs to be met and to cope with the difficulties that inevitably arise as part of life and relationships.

I see clients of all ages and from many walks of life, with a particular focus on men's mental health, working professionals, and members of the LGBTQ community.
