We all struggle sometimes with life, but sometimes, it can feel like there’s no way forward.

My goal is to collaborate with you to create a shared understanding of your situation and some ways to move forward. It’s fantastic that you’re considering therapy, and I hope to support you on your journey however I can.

I'm a person-centred, somatically informed therapist working in this field for the past 8 years. You might be a good fit with me if you're curious about understanding yourself and what’s really going on around you — but find that it's complex, overwhelming, or anxiety-inducing to try. I worked extensively with complex PTSD, DV, attachment issues, parenting, depression, separation, addiction, and more. Though sometimes it can feel like things can't possibly change, I find my clients picking up pieces of themselves along the way, and so when things fall apart again, we both know that none of them were ever truly lost.

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.

Specific areas of interest include: adolescent and adult psychosis, complex trauma, depression and anxiety (e.g., social anxiety, generalized anxiety, OCD, panic disorder, agoraphobia & PTSD).
I'm a clinical psychologist who works with people who are hoping to cope better with strong moods such as sadness, low mood or depression, anger or if feeling constantly worried, nervous or anxious. Working together we will find out how this has developed and why it hasn't gone away. In this way we can gain an understanding of the issue and develop skills and strategies to cope better right now, and to manage and/or prevent these issues from returning in the future.

Psychosis Therapists
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
