I provide counselling in Gosford and Tuggerah for children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. I support clients experiencing trauma, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, and behavioural challenges. Using trauma-informed, evidence-based approaches such as DBT, CBT, creative therapies, mindfulness, guided visualisations, and breathing techniques, I help clients build emotional regulation, resilience, coping skills, and long-term wellbeing. I provide a safe, supportive, and confidential space to process experiences, restore trust, reclaim self-identity, and achieve personal goals.
I provide therapies-CBT, ACT, play&creative therapy - for couples,children, adolescents, families and adults struggling with behaviours of concern, negative thoughts, ADHD, Autism, depression and trauma, I help clients process emotions, build resilience, and develop coping skills in a safe space, fostering empowerment, growth, and hope for a brighter future
I understand how overwhelming family dynamics, trauma and cognitive conditions can be. You’re not alone, and there is hope. Together, we can create a safe and supportive space for you or your child or family member to express emotions, process experiences, and begin healing. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here for you every step of the way.
