You may be someone who feels things deeply and notices more than most people around you. On the outside you may appear capable and coping, yet internally feel anxious, overwhelmed, or drained from carrying more than you let on. You might find yourself overthinking interactions, absorbing other people’s emotions, or struggling to set clear boundaries in relationships. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, empathic, and often intuitive individuals who want to better understand themselves, feel calmer in their own nervous system, and develop a stronger sense of where they end and others begin.

Are you struggling with motivation, trying to make sense of a recent loss, or putting on a brave face while feeling far from okay inside? Maybe you're going through a tough life transition, and you're not sure how to think, feel, or if your experience is "normal"? You don’t need the right words, a clear goal, or a crisis to be here. Therapy can start exactly where you are. Working with me feels more like a grounded conversation than a clinical process. Sessions are collaborative, unhurried, and focused on helping you understand what’s weighing on you, without pressure to fix yourself or move on before you’re ready.

Not accepting new clients
If you're considering therapy you're likely entertaining the possibility of change! Many clients have a sense of feeling 'stuck' - that what they've been doing isn't sustainable - old coping/survival strategies aren't workable and use up valuable energy, e.g.. avoidance of/distracting from/suppressing/whiteknuckling/ruminating on: thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, urges, images, memories. These maintain negative cycles, keep our emotional brain vigilant to 'threat' and our nervous system mobilised in a stress response. What if we could imagine a future we'd like to participate in, regardless of what's showing up in the present?

Middlepath Allied Health
Social Worker, AMHSW
Rose Park, SA 5067
As a Mental Health Social Worker/psychotherapist, I believe healing is a journey—one that requires authenticity, patience, and connection to both ourselves and the world around us. Creating a genuine, compassionate space for clients is conducive to reaching individual therapy goals. Therapy isn’t just about skills; it’s about human connection and continual learning. Healing invites us to slow down, stay present, and trust the path—even when it’s winding or uncertain. If you’re seeking support or collaboration with someone who values honesty, growth, and deep connection, I may just be the right fit for you.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
