I work both clinically (in East Melbourne and via telehealth) and in my Equine-assisted practice in Kangaroo Ground (45 minutes north east of Fitzroy). My specialities include: LGBTQIA+ community mental health, women's mental health, PMDD, ADHD, ASD, anxiety, depression, stress, loneliness, and more. I am also a lifelong equine specialist, and my equine-assisted practice is immersed in nature on a beautiful property in Kangaroo Ground. I work with all ages from 6+ with the help of horses, ponies, and two VERY friendly sheep! Sessions are tailored to each individual's goals and needs. Equine-assisted therapy is NDIS billable.
Perhaps you just need someone to really hear you; maybe you're exhausted from showing up every day for work, families, friends, & partners and find little space left for your own emotions to be held. You might need a space that is entirely for you, where you can know that every part of you will be held gently, and without judgment.
You know yourself better than anybody with a degree. I aim to draw attention to the subtle moments that contain material we can explore together, and gently tug at these threads to help untangle your inner world, so we can - side by side - slowly knit it into something beautiful that you can draw wisdom from and apply to your life to make meaningful change.
