With nearly a decade of experience in rehabilitation, I am a specialist counsellor accredited by the Australian Society of Rehabilitation Counsellors (ASORC) as well as the Australian Counselling Association, to support individuals through the challenges of health conditions. I recognize that the journey following illness or injury is unique and may not always align with expectations. To book an appointment you can book me at my private practice Mindful Building Solutions in Scarborough or alternatively I am at Ahead Psychology Stafford every Monday and Wednesday (07) 3352 3577
Individuals with prolonged injuries or chronic pain often experience symptoms that closely resemble those of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Because both pain and injury serve as signals of threat to the body, their effects often overlap. As part of the assessment process, questionnaires are used to detect signs of Adjustment to Injury Disorder.
Guiding you through life’s toughest transitions with compassionate support. Specializing in recovery and adjustment after injury or change, including workplace challenges, workers’ compensation counseling, motor vehicle accident recovery, return-to-work support, vocational assessment, and career counseling.

I often utilise Motivational Interviewing in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. Using the biopsychosocial model to understand your mental and physical health through a multi-systems lens, understanding the influence of biology, psychology, and social environment to reach your goals.
