I have experience helping adolescents, adults and families overcome crises and complex situations.
Some things are hard to name — and even harder to carry alone. If you're living with the weight of trauma, navigating life across cultures, or working through challenges that feel too layered for a short-term fix, you've found the right space. I work with people from diverse cultural backgrounds ready for something deeper: real, ongoing work that meets you where you are — not where a system expects you to be. Migrant, refugee, and multicultural communities — people who grew up between worlds, navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma, OCD, or borderline presentations and never quite finding a service that reached them.

What happens to the soul when the technological world increasingly determines how we think, work, desire, and understand ourselves? This is an invitation to a deeper interiorisation of what troubles and perplexes us: loosening our tendency to read experience only in personal terms, and attending instead to the autonomous, dialectical movement of the psyche. Rather than optimising identity, vocation, or relationships, we ask what might emerge when consciousness becomes more receptive to the reality of the soul.

There Is Nothing Wrong With You <3. We all have certain traits that can either benefit us or hinder us. This all depends on the circumstance and how aware we are of which trait is behind the wheel in any given moment. Your Vigilance keeps you safe, but when it is always taking the driver’s seat your nervous system becomes taxed. Your people pleasing makes you feel valued and it’s good to care about the people around you. However, having clear boundaries makes for more authentic relationships and stops you from burning out. I’m not interested in trying to "fix" you, but I would love to support your path to self-awareness.

Reaching out for counselling can feel daunting. I provide a calm, confidential space where you don't need the right words or a clear plan. We start where you are. We work gently & practically to gain understanding and reconnect with strengths. People often reach out when: They feel anxious or constantly on edge. Their mood has been low for longer than they expected. Grief or loss feels heavier than it “should.” Life changes have unsettled their confidence. Work or relationships feel overwhelming. They are exhausted from trying to manage everything alone. They want support around body image, weight, or long-term health struggles..

FAQ - About Adult Counselling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioural therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.

How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists in Australia hold various credentials depending on their training. Counsellors and Psychotherapists are registered with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) or the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and their qualifications and practice are overseen by these professional organisations. Psychologists must be registered with the Psychology Board of Australia (PsyBA) and have professional designations such as Clinical Psychologist, General Psychologist, or Counselling Psychologist. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.

How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
