I focus on workers' compensation/injuries and women's mental health. I am a registered clinical psychologist with over 12 years of experience in both clinical and organisational psychology practice. Recognising individual beliefs, experiences, and cultures is at the core of my practice. I provide support in a non-judgmental and friendly environment, allowing clients to share and work through barriers uniquely. Many of my clients are women who are south-east asian and work in high-demand roles in medicine, engineering, law and psychology.

Workplace Injuries, Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Phobias, Trauma, Relationship issues and Group Therapy. I also am experienced in Workers' compensation, rehabilitation and treatment. I use a range of evidence-based therapies to support my clients, including cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy.

Within non-therapeutic psychology, I focus on wellness workshops, mental health education, early intervention, and workplace strategy. I have extensive experience in workplace wellbeing. I am also a Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) facilitator, working across front-line operational and corporate workforces.
