Often it can be hard to break out of rumination, low mood, or anxious cycles by ourselves.
I love helping people make sense of their issues and get past them. Psychological science has come a long way and there are excellent strategies for most problems - often all that is needed is a clear grasp of what’s happening, a path forward, and some effort to put in the work.

While I am a therapist, I am a human first and I believe that therapy shouldn’t be formal or scary. I welcome all body shapes, sizes and identities and practice from a weight inclusive framework.

I am particularly interested in anxiety and related disorders in men and the intersection of mental health and menopause in women.
My work is extremely collaborative. I typically discuss the approach I am using with my clients and invite them to explore with me how psychology may be able to assist them to reach a goal or solve a problem, working only with those symptoms my clients identify as causing distress and/or preventing them from leading a rich and meaningful life.

I see a range of clinical issues: mood disturbance (depression, dysthymia) anxiety (generalised anxiety, excessive worry, panic) and entrenched problems arising from trauma (PTSD, grief, attachment issues), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
My work draws from psychodynamic approaches to the existential issues we face along the lifespan: navigating important life transitions (loss, breakup), stuckness in one's circumstances and relational patterns (attachment issues), persistent loneliness or isolation, disconnection from work or sense of vitality, creating a sense of meaning through adversity.

I created Discern Psychology to provide a safe and respectful space for women to pause, reflect and explore new ways of how they want to be present in the world. I believe that to ‘discern’ in the therapeutic context means to recognise what matters to you, what no longer serves you and what direction feels right for you. I would love to support you to gain clarity, practical tools and a stronger sense of the person you want to be. My special interest areas include parenting and perinatal mental health, relationships, self worth, culture, identity, life transitions, work/career, stress and burnout.

Anxiety Therapists
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
What are the most common types of treatment for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
