Utilising current, evidence-based counselling techniques I honour all clients from a client-centred approach, as we journey together trusting the innate wisdom held within us all as a platform for healing and wellbeing. I have 11 years of socially diverse and culturally rich experience of counselling families and individuals experiencing trauma, loss, anxiety, stress, depression, addictions, OCD, major life transitions and relationship challenges. My long involvement with individuals and families, both personally and professionally, has taught me much about the struggles and challenges many of us may face.

I support women in mid-life to navigate complicated and changing emotions and a world that doesn't always feel like 'home'. Maybe you've been on a quest for self improvement and greater self understanding. You've seen umpteen therapists, read the books, joined the groups, listened to the podcasts. But deep down, something still feels off. Relationships just aren't working, you struggle to express yourself without upsetting people - or you just stay silent - and the weight of old wounds, self-doubt, and a silent ache you can't quite name, continues to linger.

My ideal clients are individuals actively seeking answers and driven by a strong desire to create a more fulfilling life. Many have navigated the profound and often complex challenges stemming from past trauma, which can manifest in various ways, from anxiety and depression to difficulties with forming secure attachments, managing emotions, relationship breakdown and even a sense of confused identity. My own path to becoming a therapist was deeply personal; I experienced firsthand the struggle to find the empathetic support and clear guidance needed to heal from the past and understand how to obtain psychological wellbeing.

I am a clinical psychologist based in Sydney who works with individuals who appear high-functioning on the outside but carry anxiety, trauma, or deep emotional fatigue. My clients are often insightful and sensitive, seeking clarity, healing, and a more authentic way of living. They come to therapy not just to manage symptoms, but to understand themselves more deeply, break long-standing patterns, and feel seen in a safe and compassionate space. I support them with a thoughtful, integrative approach that honours both science and the human story.
