Life can get overwhelming, we get stuck, exhausted, confused or it feels too much! We don’t need to be alone at these times. If you relate to these things or have other questions - feel free to reach out. My encouraging approach enables you to be at ease sharing your concerns in a calm, safe space. I have worked with young people, adults and families for over 30 years but would also like to encourage males over 40yrs of age connect with me re their concerns.
As an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, I assist with: mental health & wellbeing, trauma, parenting, relationships, grief & loss, life changes, workplace pressure, work / life balance and men's health & wellbeing. I offer a range of therapies to help you find hope, make sense of this journey and find strategies to better manage things going forward.
Seeking help takes courage. Well done on taking your first steps. If still unsure, please call me for a free 15 min. consult with any other questions. If you have a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) from your GP, you can see me under the Medicare system. NDIS plans can also be used (self-managed or plan managed). Private health insurance rebates may also apply.

While I draw on numerous therapies, I find ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) really helps people begin to separate from their struggle, make choices that enable them to move in the direction of their values and find a richer and more meaningful life. I find ACT just fits our human experience like a glove!
