I’m a Clinical Psychologist and academic researcher specialising in sleep. I completed my PhD focusing on treatments for individuals with insomnia. I work with adults experiencing insomnia, circadian rhythm disruptions, nightmares, parasomnias, and sleep‑related anxiety. I also support people with anxiety, depression, post‑traumatic stress, and challenges such as perfectionism and emotional regulation. I use evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness.
My approach is empathic, collaborative and practical, focusing on understanding what’s contributing to unhelpful patterns and supporting meaningful change..
Sydney Sleep and Insomnia offers a multidisciplinary approach to sleep care, with our team including a sleep physician who can provide medical sleep assessments and sleep studies where appropriate.
