I have a special interest in working with children, adolescents, and families in addition to supporting mums and dads through pregnancy and post-pregnancy. Issues treated (but not limited to) include; anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, school issues, suicidal thinking, personality disorder, anger management, gender transitioning, self-harm, grief and loss, work related issues (Workcover accredited psych), life coaching, relationship matters, family mediation, court and legal reports and the teaching of parenting skills. I also offer couples, family and marital therapy. I am also an accredited Supervisor to other psychologists.
I bring a wealth of life experience to clients that incorporate having worked with children, parents and teachers as a School Counsellor/Psychologist and in private practice across the life span. I have also experience working with kids and adults dealing with Gender Dysphoria, Aspergers, ADHD, ADD,ODD, challenging behaviours and intellectual disabilities.
I am a committed and caring professional that prides herself on supporting children, adolescents, women, adults and families in a confidential environment. I seek to adopt a ‘strengths’ based approach using evidence based therapies that are uniquely tailored to each client to support them to make changes and reach their goals.
