I work with couples, adults and young people who are facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties, substance use, and patterns of behaviour that no longer serve them. Many of the people I support feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the life they want to be living. Together, we explore the impact of past experiences, build practical coping strategies, and work towards greater self-awareness, resilience, and lasting change. Additionally, I work with couples who are experiencing struggles within their relationship and want to explore new ways to communicate more effectively.

As a Psychologist, I believe that building strong positive therapeutic relationships with clients is essential in helping individuals overcome challenges and reach personal and professional goals in order to thrive. I understand that making the decision to seek Psychological support can be challenging for many, I therefore endeavour to make clients feel validated, heard, understood and hopeful.

If you feel like you logically understand your problems but still can't seem to change your automatic reactions, you aren't alone. Traditional talk therapy often focuses solely on the conscious mind, while pure hypnotherapy may lack practical day-to-day strategies. My approach bridges this gap by integrating Clinical Hypnotherapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). This dual-level methodology addresses both the conscious thoughts and the deep-seated subconscious patterns that drive behaviours like anxiety, insomnia, and addiction.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by trauma, anxiety, or depression, and finding it hard to fully engage in life. Unprocessed experiences can stay stuck in the nervous system, keeping you on edge or disconnected. I offer a safe, empathetic space where you are truly heard. Using evidence-based trauma therapy, including EMDR, I help you process the past, reduce distress, and create lasting change—so you can regain control, resilience, and live more fully, not just cope.

I help individuals who are navigating relationship difficulties, difficulties with self-confidence, and repeating patterns that feel challenging to shift. Therapy with me is a space to explore the complexity with curiosity and compassion, so you can make sense of what’s emerging, what’s not working, and move toward changes that feel more meaningful, relationships that feel more connected, and a life that feels more aligned with who you truly are or want to be. Often, patterns live not just in the mind, but also in the body, which is why I integrate somatic, attachment and parts-work approaches to therapy.

ADHD Melbourne is a practice dedicated to supporting adults, adolescents, and children navigating ADHD, ASD and related challenges. We understand that ADHD is not simply about attention or organisation, it affects emotions, relationships, work, study, self-esteem, and daily life in deeply personal ways. Our approach is strengths-based, neuroaffirming, and evidence-informed. We recognise that every ADHD brain is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. ADHD Melbourne conducted formal assessment for both ADHD and ASD for ages 6 and above.

You may feel consumed by thoughts of someone, caught in cycles of longing, uncertainty, and emotional highs and crashes. Limerence can feel confusing, addictive, and destabilising. You might know the relationship is not healthy, yet struggle to let go. I work with individuals and couples experiencing limerence, obsessive love, attachment anxiety, betrayal, or relationship distress who want clarity, emotional steadiness, and healthier connection. I am also the author of Limerence: The Psychopathology of Loving Too Much (Routledge, 2025).

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and 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.
