I work with young people, adults, couples and groups from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences. People usually come to see me when anxiety, trauma, low mood, stress, pain, relationship strain, ADHD, or life changes start to affect how they are coping day to day. Some feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or worn down. I offer a warm, practical space to understand what is happening, make sense of patterns, and build realistic ways forward that feel useful in everyday life. I currently offer online sessions, with Brisbane in-person appointments available soon and welcome clients from a wide range of cultural backgrounds.
I use evidence based approaches including CBT, ACT, DBT informed work, and trauma focused therapy. My work is tailored to the person in front of me, with attention to what is most likely to help in a meaningful and practical way. I also bring experience in assessment, formulation, and working with both straightforward and more complex presentations.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you have been carrying a lot on your own. You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out. If you are looking for support from someone who is warm, genuine, culturally respectful, and practical in his approach, I would be glad to help.

I work with anxiety, trauma, depression, stress, adjustment difficulties, persistent pain, relationship strain, and broader life stressors.
