ADHD Psychologists and Therapists in Australian Capital Territory
I support teens and adults navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, relationship difficulties, grief, stress, burnout, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. You may feel exhausted from masking, coping alone, overthinking, or trying to hold everything together possibly feeling misunderstood by family, friends, or others around you. Therapy offers a supportive space where you can feel genuinely heard, gain insight into your experiences, strengthen emotional regulation, improve relationships, and reconnect with a greater sense of safety, confidence, and direction.

As a genderqueer, ace-spectrum, and neurodivergent person, I am passionate about supporting other members of my community. If you are neurodivergent, disabled or chronically ill, queer and/or trans, poly/non-monogamous, or engage in kink/BDSM community I would love to support you in therapy. I used my lived experience to bring understanding, empathy and patience to our work together. I welcome people with marginalised experiences and want to create a space where it is ok for you to be your unmasked self.

I understand that one needs significant courage to take the first step towards therapy, and therefore I aim to provide a safe environment where you will feel comfortable to openly discuss any issues in a non-judgmental, warm, empathic, and supportive manner. We will explore your current difficulties and invite you to consider what you would like to be different. You will set the direction for our work and I will walk alongside you, as we identify and work on the strategies and actions that support you the best to build the life you want.

I am passionate about working with diversity. As a queer, neurodivergent therapist, I seek to create an authentic and safe space for people to bring their whole selves. I am passionate about people making changes in their lives through building shame resilience and practising radical self-acceptance and self-compassion. I support people reframing core beliefs that may have been profoundly misunderstood. I love supporting people through finding liberation from systems and constructs that have kept us from embracing who we are.
