I am an ACA registered counsellor and the co-director of Wattlebird Therapy based in Elderslie. I have experience working with a range of clients with a particular focus on children and young people, as well as the LGBTIQA+ community, NDIS support, and people accessing support under the Victims Support scheme. Some of the concerns I have supported my clients through include emotional regulation issues, low self-esteem and confidence, social skills, anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger management.
I have a particular interest in working with children and young people and enjoy using creative approaches such as art and play in therapy. I can also provide counselling under the NDIS and the Victims Support scheme. I offer face-to-face sessions in Elderslie, and I also offer telehealth services for those unable to travel or who might prefer teletherapy.
I offer a non-judgemental client-centred approach and draw from a range of therapies to provide you with the approach that suits you best. I aim to create a safe, supportive space where we can work together to achieve your goals.
