I have been in the field for over a decade, supporting children, adolescents and adults in Australia and New Zealand through various behavioural, emotional and psychological challenges.
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.

I work with adults who have insight into their patterns but find themselves in a cycle of repeating them. You may be struggling with relationships, self-worth, boundaries or emotional wellbeing, or navigating trauma, loss, addiction or significant change. Together, we look beneath these patterns, not simply to manage them, but to understand where they come from, how they continue to shape your life and the pain they may create. Therapy can create greater freedom and choice in how you relate to yourself, others and the world around you.

I have a masters in Gestalt psychotherapy and work with a range of people and issues, including LGBTQIA+ folk, their families and others whose experiences of marginalisation have affected their mental health. A lifelong wish has been to enable others to explore their own healing journey. Emotional difficulties or life situations can feel overwhelming to deal with alone, and support is needed. I have learnt the value of analytic therapy through my own healing and see my work through a Gestalt lens. We are human, which means we are flawed and unique beings. 'We are all unique pieces of art in the making'.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
