I came to psychology as a mature age student, studying part time at Swinburne and Victoria University during the 80’s and 90’s. Because I believe that coaching, counselling or psychotherapy needs to be tailored to each individual, I have developed skills in a number of different approaches over the last twenty years.
Growing up in a Victorian country town in the middle of last century, I attended both State and Catholic schools before serving as an officer in the Royal Australian Navy during the Vietnam era.

As a psychotherapist I create a field, I prepare the ground and the conditions, I set processes in motion, I resonate and synchronise with the rhythm of the person. I help the person to centre inside, to anchor in the body, in the present and in reality. What I am most interested in is the relationship people have with themselves. Most problems that occur in interpersonal relationships have to do with conflict within us. My work is about lowering fears, taking small and big courageous steps, regaining the capacity to love, rebuilding trust in ourselves so that we can find and follow our path.
