Geriatric and Seniors Counselling in Glenroy, VIC

I am a clinical psychologist and psychology supervisor. In my 10 years of practice, I have developed skills and experience in offering trauma therapies (particularly to adults with childhood trauma), acceptance-focused therapies, and working with persons from queer communities. I offer a non-judgmental and accepting therapeutic space, where you can feel safe to explore the things that have been hard to figure out on your own. If you’re here, you’ve started looking for help, which is a good first step. Feel free to contact me for a chat, if you think we might work well together.

Neurological conditions affect both the patient and their family. I offer my services to both. Neurological disorders are doubtless among the most frightening illnesses that human beings face. Knowledge is sometimes the only power there is against the vagaries of these ailments. That is where counselling from a specialist psychotherapist comes in. I will make an assessment of the patient’s condition and take a medical history. I will also work with the patient’s doctor to coordinate the psychotherapy with medical treatment. I offer sessions by Phone, Skype, FaceTime and ZOOM. Call me and let’s discuss possible therapeutic options.

Carers strive to balance their loved one's quality of life with their own well-being. Finding the balance to reduce burnout is a common goal. Therapy could be focused on coping strategies for processing difficult emotions or managing the logistics of ongoing problem-solving. Maintaining healthy relationships and issues with family dynamics is also a common struggle. Carers often seek support for a difficult life transition such as after receiving a diagnosis or transitioning a loved one to permanent care.
