I offer psychodynamic/psychoanalytic psychotherapy to people who wish to explore their inner world, emotional life, and experiences in a thoughtful and meaningful way. I work with people experiencing a wide range of emotional, psychological, relational, or psychiatric difficulties, as well as with those seeking deeper self-understanding. I am committed to culturally respectful and inclusive practice and welcome Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
My approach is gentle, depth-oriented, and grounded in careful listening and curiosity. It involves speaking freely about whatever comes to mind, and thinking together with a therapist. It is a creative and intuitive approach to healing and personal growth, backed by a long tradition of scientific and psychological study.
My training includes clinical experience in Australia, the UK, South Asia, and the Middle East. I have also studied and practised yoga for over 15 years, which provides me with a nuanced understanding of the mind–body relationship. I do not provide psychiatric diagnosis, medication prescription, or medication management as part of my psychotherapy practice.

I practise a depth-oriented, exploratory form of therapy that emphasises careful listening, curiosity, emotional life, meaning, and inner experience. Rather than focusing primarily on symptom management or behavioural strategies, this approach aims to understand the past experiences and unconscious processes that shape how you experience yourself, others, and the world.
