Life rarely follows a straight line. It can be overwhelming, messy and empty. Sometimes we just feel stuck, not knowing what to do. The ways we try to cope - like cutting off from things or people we value - often make us feel more sad or worried. I work with young people, adults and families to develop new perspectives, learn strategies to cope and build meaningful lives.
I bring a warm, respectful and collaborative approach to helping people build healthy and meaningful lives. I recognise the importance of combining your lived experience with my expertise. I have more than a decade of experience working in acute mental health hospital settings, gaining extensive experience in managing complex mental health presentations.
Reaching out for help isn’t easy for most of us. But talking with a psychologist can offer a fresh perspective, help you develop tools to handle difficult thoughts and emotions more effectively, and support you as you take steps toward a life that feels more meaningful. I provide psychology consultations in Ballina, NSW, as well as online via telehealth.
