Whatever it is that brings you here – one thing i know is that you are not flawed!
You with your gifts and grudges, wins and wounds; hopes and hurts. All of this makes you a human being. Beyond the surface of your life and the world you live in, beyond the stories, struggles and strains, there is a depth of infinite goodness and joy that is yours – yours to rest in and yours to offer. What we can co-create together, is a reminder and re-connection to this deeper truth. I value and practice in a holistic and integrated way, offering Person-Centred Therapy for individuals and group to re-connect to their innate goodness.

So many concerns come from overthinking & believing what we think too often. So many concerns come from overthinking & believing what we think too often. Circumstances can be challenging/overwhelming. We can become depressed/anxious, which can affect relationships; especially after recent/past traumatic experiences, or distressing/unsupportive family relationships, which can negatively affect our ability to cope, & our view of ourselves & our place in the world. Mindfulness-based cognitive behaviour therapy (ACT/CBT/Schema Therapy/MET) can effectively address unhelpful patterns of thinking & behaviour.

As a psychologist, my approach is to first connect with the person in front of me, then understand what brings you to therapy, and then work collaboratively to help you feel empowered to take charge of your life, however that feels or looks for you. It truly is different for everyone.

I am a registered nurse and psychotherapist offering weekly therapy, counselling, and consultation for individuals navigating mental health challenges, substance use, trauma, or difficult life experiences.
With over a decade in public and private psychiatric settings — including acute care, suicide prevention, dual diagnosis, and community work — I bring both clinical expertise and a capacity to sit with the complexity of human suffering. I offer a space where therapy unfolds with emphasis to speaking, not as a set of instructions but as a process of exploring what matters, what repeats, and what might change.

Understanding our problems and achieving change in our lives is found in considering our whole life journey. Our past provides a foundation for learning, our present provides us with the opportunity for agency and choice and our future can provide a meaningfulness. From this we can grow, strive, be more resilient and better adapt to what ever life throws at us. Psychotherapy works best when we recognise we have strengths not just weaknesses, our symptoms are part of us not all of us, change is about both loss and gain and that insight and self-knowledge is the basis for real enduring change.

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.

Men's Issues Counsellors
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
