You may appear capable and composed on the outside but internally feel overwhelmed by anxiety, perfectionism or experiences of trauma. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, driven individuals who feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, self criticism or emotional exhaustion. I’m a counsellor based in Upper Coomera supporting teens and adults who are navigating trauma, anxiety, perfectionism and eating disorders. I also have a particular interest in working with members of emergency services and other high pressure professions where the demands of the work can take a significant emotional toll.
My approach is trauma informed, neuroaffirming and weight inclusive. I draw from various evidence based interventions including CBT, ACT, DBT and soon EMDR. As a credentialed eating disorder clinician, I have also completed further specialised training in the field of eating disorders to provide the highest standard of care for restrictive and binge patterns
Therapy with me is a space where you can slow down, explore what’s been weighing on you and develop practical strategies for moving forward. Together we work to better understand the patterns that keep you feeling stuck while building the skills and confidence needed to create meaningful and lasting change.
