My website
Practising since 2004, I am a clinical psychologist working with adults, adolescents and couples, with expertise in anxiety & depression, trauma, gender & sexuality issues, relationship difficulties, substance use and eating disorders. I worked in senior clinical roles earlier in my career at The University of Melbourne, Headspace and Orygen Youth Health. I am experienced in working with peopIe in regard to gender transition and during gender-affirming care. I provide psychotherapy and also supervise colleagues and students, and work with complex presentations.
I hold a Bachelor of Science, Graduate Diploma in Psychology, and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, and have undertaken further psychoanalytic training over a number of years. I have delivered post-graduate training at The University of Melbourne, lectured to clinical Masters students at The Cairnmillar Institute, and published papers on psychotherapy.
My therapeutic approach is to understand you what has led you to come and talk with me, and what you are looking for in your therapy, alongside forming a therapeutic relationship whilst your therapy unfolds over time. I provide a confidential and non-judgmental space in which to discuss what is troubling you and how to best work together.

I work psychoanalytically, and my work is trauma-informed. My approach can be a way of working through your problems, addressing what gets in the way of pursuing what you want in your life, as well as developing new ways of relating to yourself and others. It can also be a way of examining key questions that you have. This, in turn, can open up new possibilities in your life.
