I work best with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating challenges related to trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, parenting, relationships, work stress, or major life transitions. My ideal client is open to exploring their thoughts, emotions, and patterns of behaviour and is motivated to create meaningful, lasting change. Whether the issues are long standing or more recent, I support clients in identifying practical strategies and deeper insights that lead to growth. I genuinely love my work and for as long as I can remember, been interested in people’s stories and how they think, feel and behave.
With nearly 20 years of experience, a Master’s degree from Monash University, and a background in research, I offer evidence based, client centred therapy for individuals, couples, and families. I work with a range of concerns including trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, parenting, relationships, and work stress.
Starting therapy can feel daunting but you do not have to face things alone. I offer a safe and supportive space where you can explore what matters most. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative focused on helping you feel understood while working toward meaningful change. I would be honoured to support you on that journey.
