I work with adolescents & adults who are struggling with anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, and the pressure they place on themselves. Most people appear to be coping on the surface but deep down, they are overwhelmed & stressed. I can help with imposter syndrome, perfectionism, generalised & social anxiety, panic attacks & health anxiety, OCD and body-focussed repetitive behaviours. I enjoy working with culturally diverse clients including working through family of origin issues, minority stress & trauma, as well as those with chronic illnesses & adjustment to the same.
I have been practising as a psychologist since 2008 & have worked extensively with adolescents & adults from culturally & linguistically diverse backgrounds with a wide range of presentations. I am trained in a cognitive-behavioural therapy called Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) in Australia & overseas & also use DBT & compassion-focussed approaches.
I am passionate about helping people live a life with meaning and purpose and help them through tough times. I feel privileged to hear your stories and understand that each person is unique while helping you understand your patterns of thinking, feeling, & behaving. I value the therapeutic relationship and come to it with warmth, compassion and authenticity.
