Are you struggling with issues relating to trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, managing your emotions or just feeling overwhelmed and don't know where to start? I endeavour to provide a space where you are seen and heard, and recognise that our mental health is shaped not only by our individual experiences, but also by our relationships, culture, identity, and the broader systems we live within. I also provide clinical supervision for mental health professionals, offering a reflective and collaborative space that can be shaped around your needs — whether for guidance, support, or deepening reflective practice

I work with adults who may appear to be coping externally but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected internally. Many are navigating ADHD or neurodivergence, identity, queerness, cultural experiences, relationship patterns, burnout, or life transitions. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and neuro-affirming, integrating CBT, ACT, IFS parts work, attachment-based therapy, and practical ADHD coaching. Using collaborative intersectional frameworks while maintaining authenticity, empathy and curiosity, we make sense of patterns, reduce shame, and build realistic, sustainable ways of moving forward.

Are you someone who thinks deeply about your life but feels stuck? You try to get traction but keep finding yourself back in the same place? Maybe you struggle with your body image, or you’re caught in a cycle with food that leaves you feeling out of control. Maybe anxiety sits in the background, making life feel harder than it should. Maybe you're over-adapting in relationships, working hard to keep others happy, and losing sight of what you actually want. Or maybe there's just a nagging sense that the life you're living isn't quite yours.

You may be high-functioning on the outside yet overwhelmed on the inside — caught in perfectionism, overthinking or self-doubt. You might struggle with anxiety, people-pleasing, boundaries or feeling “not enough,” even though you appear capable to others. Perhaps you're exploring identity (personal, relational, cultural, professional or gender-related), navigating relationship or attachment patterns, or noticing the effects of childhood emotional neglect or emotionally immature parents. You want clarity, confidence and lasting change. Syné Collective is a warm and intentional space where you can explore this, free of judgement.

Families and adults come to me for clarity. Often a child is struggling at school, a teenager has hit a wall, or an adult has spent years sensing something was missed. Most of my work is assessment: autism, ADHD, FASD, cognitive, educational, memory, and broader neuropsychological assessment, for every age. I use gold-standard instruments, then take time to explain what the results mean and what to do next. I also work with vulnerable children and families in child protection and out-of-home care, and I see clients for trauma-informed therapy alongside assessment.

Life can be hard sometimes. Most people who contact me aren't broken or looking to be "fixed". They're often doing their best to cope with situations that would challenge anyone. I work with teenagers and young adults, people living with chronic illness, those navigating miscarriage and infant loss, carers experiencing burnout, and anyone feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges. Many of my clients are tired of carrying so much on their own and are looking for a space where they can be themselves without judgment.

Psychotherapist, PACFA

I am a Jungian psychotherapist and a candidate enrolled in the Australian and New Zealand Society of Jungian Analysts’ training programme. I work with the subtle movements of the inner world — dreams, images, emotions, and the quiet patterns that shape a life. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and guided by a deep respect for the wisdom of the unconscious. I offer a space where you can explore the themes, questions, and experiences that matter most, and where your own inner voice can begin to emerge with greater clarity and confidence.

Olga has practical knowledge of care specifics for complex conditions that affect functioning, thinking, behaviour and emotional regulation ( dementia, developmental disorders) It comes from additional training and years of experience in supporting hundreds of clients.
Carers strive to balance their loved one's quality of life with their own well-being. Finding the balance to reduce burnout is a common goal. Therapy could be focused on coping strategies for processing difficult emotions or managing the logistics of ongoing problem-solving. Maintaining healthy relationships and issues with family dynamics is also a common struggle. Carers often seek support for a difficult life transition such as after receiving a diagnosis or transitioning a loved one to permanent care.

Although we may be trying our hardest, sometimes we can feel overwhelmed and unable to cope, or that our lives have taken a wrong turn.

If these difficulties ring true, I believe I can help you get your life and your self back. Together, we will explore where you are now, the person you want to be and the way you want to live.
