I’m a Couples and Family Therapist and Mental Health Social Worker based in Melbourne’s Inner West, offering therapy for individuals, couples, and families who are ready to untangle the tricky parts of being human together. I'm all about helping people feel more connected- whether that's partners trying to find that spark again, parents navigating the beautiful chaos of raising little humans, or families figuring how to get through a dinner together without conflict erupting.

I bring years of clinical experience as a Couple and Family Therapist, having worked across private practice, relationship counselling NGOs, early parenting centres, and child and adolescent mental health services. My approach is warm, grounded, and genuinely curious—I’m here to understand, not to judge.
Whether you’re figuring out how to parent as a team, reconnect after a rough patch, or just breathe a little easier at home—I’m here to help make those relationships feel more steady, more supportive, and a lot more you. I offer face-to-face therapy in Spotswood and Kensington, with online availability also. Please reach out by phone, email or website.
