Psychologist, PhD, PsyBA - Ed. Psych.

Hi, I’m Andrea. I really value the opportunity to support people when life feels difficult, confusing or overwhelming. People often come to therapy when they feel stuck, burnt out, anxious or unsure about what to do next. I aim to provide a space where you can speak openly, better understand what is happening for you, and work towards changes that feel realistic and meaningful. I won’t pretend that therapy makes difficult things disappear. Instead, I believe my role is to help you make sense of them, identify what matters to you, and find a way forward that feels right for you.

Psychologist, PsychD, MAPS

Serves Area
I am a Doctor of Clinical Psychology who trained in the UK and has worked in England, New Zealand and now Australia. My main interest is understanding the meaning behind an individual's suffering. My philosophy is that diagnoses act as a potential obstacle to truly understanding the reality of an individual's experience. Therefore, in practice, I try to refrain from medicalising someone's misery and instead be open to perceiving people's expressions of distress as often logical, rational, predictable and understandable reactions to some form of neglect, abuse, loss and/or trauma.
