I am a compassionate and dedicated Psychologist and Focusing-Oriented Therapist. I work with adults and adolescents (14+) experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, body image concerns, difficulties with emotion regulation, and trauma.
My approach is flexible and tailored to your needs and preferences. I offer practical strategies to help you cope better from the start, while reaching deeper to the root cause of your issues to promote lasting change.
I use a range of evidence-based approaches, combining traditional talk therapy with EMDR for processing trauma and Focusing, a somatic approach that helps you tune into your body to understand yourself more deeply and promote changes that can be felt at a bodily level. I also integrate Nonviolent Communication (NVC), a framework that fosters connection.
I am a fully registered psychologist with the Psychology Board of Australia (AHPRA) and a member of the Australian Psychology Society & the EMDRAA. Following additional training, I also became a certified Focusing Oriented Therapist and member of the International Focusing Institute (IFI).
If my approach resonates with you, I’d be glad to hear from you.
