I am an AHPRA registered Clinical Psychologist and I've been treating adults and adolescents for 10+ years now.
I work with clients presenting with various psychological challenges negatively impacting their mental health. This includes: challenges with their emotions or general mood, such as stress, overwhelm, low mood, anxiety, depression; difficulty connecting with their emotions; past or recent trauma; dealing with grief; difficulty adjusting to change, dealing with uncertainty; challenges with their partner, family, friends, or work colleagues, and more. Clients generally want to understand what they're going through, and build coping tools to overcome their challenges so that they can feel in control of themselves and their lives again.

I have over 14 years of experience helping adults, teens and families in crisis.
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.

Feeling stuck can be a powerful signal and often marks the beginning of something new. Whether you’re caught in looping thoughts, overwhelmed by anxiety, feeling flat, disconnected, or burnt out, therapy offers a space to pause and realign. Maybe you’re longing for more purpose, calm, or just a sense of feeling more like “you” again. Clients often describe me as calming, warm, and conversational. My approach blends practical strategies with deeper reflective work. Some days we focus on real-life tools to help you feel more grounded, and other times we explore the impact of the past on how you relate to yourself and to others.
