I have a special interest in working with our first responders: QAS, QPS, QCS, SES and QFES, clients under Victim Assist, and with those experiencing workplace issues (WorkCover). Work is such a large part of our life, and when work is difficult, it is hard not to let it leak into our private lives. It is wonderful to start shifting some of the symptoms and bring back a sense of joy. Together, my clients and I work on what a happier life would look like, and what is needed to get there. We usually do this by looking at strengths and values, and by exploring underlying beliefs that may hold you back.
I offer evidence-based treatment as endorsed by the Australian Association of Psychologists Inc. (AAPi), and have a special interest in Positive Psychology (the science of well-being) and neuro-science (the biology of changing one's moods). I am trained in various trauma treatments, including EMDR.
If you would like to have a chat to see if we could work together, please feel free to contact me. You will most likely need to leave a voicemail, as I am usually in session during the day, but I promise to return your call.
