I work with adults seeking relief from their difficulties, as well as growth through a deeper understanding of themselves. Difficulties may show up in relationships, anxiety, grief, self-criticism, perfectionism, or a sense that something isn’t quite right. I have a particular interest in perinatal mental health, including pregnancy, postnatal adjustment, loss, and shifts in identity. Many people I see are functioning in their lives but feel privately stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in familiar patterns.
I’m a Melbourne-based psychologist working from a psychodynamic and attachment-informed approach. Therapy explores what may sit beneath symptoms: how relationships and early experiences shape your emotional life, coping patterns, and sense of self. This work supports greater self-understanding and freedom in how you relate to yourself and others.
Change can feel conflicting, often stirring both a wish for things to be different and a pull toward the familiar. Therapy offers space to hold these tensions, together exploring the meaningful and often messy parts of life with curiosity and authenticity.
If you’d like to discuss working together, please get in touch.
