Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or feeling stuck in patterns you can't seem to break? Perhaps relationships feel hard, burnout has crept in, or you're going through a major life change and don't quite recognise yourself anymore. Maybe you've tried therapy before, and it didn't quite click. Reaching out is often the hardest part; everything after that, we figure out together. I work with adults across a wide range of concerns — online and in-person — and am Medicare and SIRA registered, welcoming WorkCover and DVA clients.
I specialise in Schema, Psychodynamic, and Relational therapy — approaches that go beyond surface symptoms to understand why you feel stuck. I also draw on CBT, ACT, and IFS, depending on what you need. Whether you're navigating trauma, burnout, anxiety, or relationship patterns, we work at your pace — with real depth, and without judgment.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, & I don't take that lightly. I work hard for every client who walks through my door - showing up fully, every session. Clients tell me they appreciate that I'm genuinely present and engaged - warm and human, while still bringing real clinical depth to the work. If something here resonates, I'd love to hear from you.

Anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, relationship patterns and life transitions are all areas I work with. Sessions are tailored to you — we begin by understanding your story, identify what's keeping you stuck, then work through it using Schema, Psychodynamic, Relational, CBT, ACT or IFS approaches. The result is lasting change, deeper self-awareness and a life that feels more like your own.

I draw from ACT, CBT, Schema Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychodynamic therapy. Rather than fitting you into a particular model, I tailor therapy to you. I believe lasting change begins with understanding yourself, so therapy is a space to slow down, get curious, and make sense of your experiences without judgment.
