In our sessions, I use psychodynamic therapy to help you uncover underlying emotional patterns, and for those experiencing trauma or personality disorders, I incorporate trauma-focused therapy to address the deep emotional wounds and promote healing.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or locked in the same painful patterns—whether in your relationships, your sense of self, or your ability to feel safe in the world. Maybe you've tried to push through it, but the anxiety, shame, or emotional exhaustion keeps coming back. You may not have words for what’s wrong, but you know something needs to change. Whether you're navigating the aftermath of trauma, struggling in your relationship, or feeling trapped by intense emotions or inner criticism, therapy can offer a space to breathe, make sense of what’s happening, and begin to heal.

I became a counsellor to be with people and help them feel less alone. All experiences are welcome - whatever your background, identity, or journey, you have a place here. Magic comes from feeling safe and heard - with me, you don't have to brace for judgment, hide who you are, or do anything “correctly”. Your story is valued and you aren’t a problem to be solved. The power of therapy is not a formula to me, nor is it effective because of a framework. It works because you show up. You deserve compassion as you navigate your life and find what feels authentic to you.

The first step is often the hardest... Find clarity in what you want, be able to express yourself, feel motivated, and explore what positive relationships look like. Have fears, hesitations, confusion and the past been holding you back from contentment in life, career or relationships? Be in the present moment and become more aware of your thoughts. This provides immense relief from fear-based thoughts and gives you clarity, as the mental clutter shifts. This is helpful for all areas of life - career, purpose, relationships, stress, anxiety and so on. Available in ANY location Australia wide via video call.

When you don’t know what else to do, we can help you find safety, and ease the pain - of anxiety, depression, relationships, grief, and career. We can also get to the root cause, to end spiralling, to end the back and forth. We can meet face to face in Norwest or by Zoom. Access to medicare benefits for mental health plans are available.
