When we become disconnected from ourselves and the people in our lives, it can lead us to feel anxious, overwhelmed, and isolated. With many of our lasting emotions deriving from the people we relate to, it can be easy to lose oneself in patterns that perpetuate states of discomfort. However, when we invite curiosity to our experience, we can begin to find simple ways to reconnect to what truly matters. Through this process we access a new lens through which we can view ourselves and the relationships we keep, fostering greater awareness, increased resilience, and moments of joy.

I’ve been working as a psychotherapist, counsellor and supervisor in private practice in Footscray for 18 years. The vibrancy, diversity and unique qualities of Footscray and the inner western suburbs of Melbourne have always felt like the right fit for my practice. I’ve worked with a diverse range of issues and presentations. As well as supporting people through mental health issues, I’m also interested in helping people develop their capacity for awareness and self-discovery. I have a steadfast commitment to the depth and transformative potential of the therapeutic process.

I know how daunting it can be to ask for help when you are struggling, but therapy can also be a highly rewarding and empowering experience. I'm here to listen and to help you manage difficult feelings as we work towards your goals together. I work with a variety of clients, and focus on helping those who are struggling with major life transitions. Many of the clients I work with are pregnant, or in the postnatal period, or are dealing with the demands of early parenting. Others may have lost someone close, or are going through a divorce or experiencing family conflict. The good news is that therapy can help with these issues.

My passion lies in helping individuals identify their innate strengths as they strive to develop the resilience and skills that will support them in shaping their lives and making meaningful changes. My treatment approach strongly aligns with the ethos of Open Minds Studio, where I collaborate with clients to establish goals, uncover their strengths, and understand their care needs and values. I specialise in supporting a wide range of presentations including mood disorders, women’s health difficulties, adjustment challenges, and neurodivergence in both adults and children.

Something isn’t quite right. It may be that you can’t stop yourself from worrying. Or you are compulsively avoiding things (places, people, certain situations). Perhaps you find yourself flying into a sudden, uncontrollable, panic. It may be that you are feeling down: you can’t shake the sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness in your life. You may be feeling worthless and guilty too. It could be your relationships that aren’t working (partner, friends, family, boss, or colleagues). Perhaps past experiences are haunting you so that you lose your connection to the present and the people in it. Perhaps it's all of the above.
