I know you need more than someone just "nodding and smiling", or lecturing you on how to "grow a thicker skin" when you are in pain. I experienced my own mental illness and for a long time could not realise why I felt I had no control. I create a safe place for you to be yourself without shame. I help you learn why your mind works the way it does, and then we translate that knowledge in to action that you personally choose, understand, and can use every day ― with you in control of the entire process.
I specialise in helping clients who feel unable to control the present because of trauma and other adversity. I do not try to mould you in to an ideal. Rather, I take time to know the entire of you, what is important, and what you need. I involve you in therapy so that we progress at a pace safe for you, and your feelings are taken seriously and honoured.
I work with clients across Australia via telephone and video conference, and in-person in Melbourne in my offices or via home visit. I keep my pricing affordable and offer discounts for holders of concession cards, Seniors' Cards, and student cards. I provide a free 15-minute introductory call to complete intake and become familiar with your goals.

I help people struggling both within themselves and in their relationships, to understand how the past and present have influenced you, and how you can become more empowered to make the changes you desire. I do this in a non-judgemental and compassionate manner that allows you to use your own values in the process.
