I enjoy helping persons aged 20-45 such as young professionals or uni students who may be struggling with anxiety and want to feel more calm, more often. We all experience bouts of stress, worry, and even panic, but for some this has become chronic and is holding them back personally, professionally and/or socially. When we learn how to constructively deal with our mental health challenges, we feel more at ease, more energized, and better able to pursue those things in life that nourish us and bring us joy; enabling us to thrive. As a registered Psychologist and full member of the APS, I have over 15 years experience in this field.
As a registered Psychologist I completed 6 yrs of university education in evidence-based practice of Psychology. I also completed a PhD with a Positive Psychology focus on how to handle stress and cope constructively with failures. I have a particular interest in treating anxiety disorders and regularly undertake professional development in this field.
Struggling with worry and stress can feel exhausting and lonely. Together we can explore your anxiety experience; helping you better understand what has caused it and what is maintaining it now. I will involve you in a practical treatment program that makes sense to you, so that you will feel empowered to work towards real improvement.
