Are you trying to manage the impacts of difficult family relationships but are struggling? Do you suspect you are neurodivergent but aren't sure whether you want a diagnosis? Are you a young queer person finding your way? Perhaps you have an invisible disability. Perhaps you are harder on yourself than on anyone else, and it's exhausting. Or your nervous system is dysregulated, and you need new skills to soothe it. I can help. Hello and welcome <3 I'm a master's-qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with a warm, calming presence, who uses body-based approaches and talk therapy to support your unique self as you adapt to change.
I have experience supporting diverse adults thrive in a complex world. I do this by focusing on what's strong, not just on what's wrong. I use strengths-based approaches and a range of modalities to collaboratively problem-solve and bring you closer to the values and direction that you are drawn to. I resource clients so they are equipped to grow well.
Because of my disability work (intellectual, psychosocial), and family trauma experience, I am big on upskilling folks how to self-advocate. People bring a range of overlapping identities to therapy: you are uniquely you, and our journey is to discover and build the best version of yourself, at a pace that is safe and enriching.

Some folks prefer counselling over psychology as there is no requirement for a Mental Health Care Plan through a GP. For plan-managed NDIS participants, I must validate the funding allocation with your Support Coordinator before therapy commences.

I support my clients by taking a biopsychosocial approach, working with body, mind and social systems to optimise wellbeing. I believe regulating the nervous system is critical in therapy. We will upskill you to address hyperarousal and hypoarousal and expand your window of tolerance. People who can regulate effectively are better placed to initiate and maintain positive change.
