I am a clinical psychologist who supports new and expectant fathers and mothers experiencing low mood, anxiety, birth trauma, perinatal loss, and the identity shifts that come with becoming a parent. I enjoy supporting parents to adjust, develop confidence in themselves, and build a stronger connection with their baby. I also have a growing practice offering psychological and educational assessments for school-aged children across Melbourne and Shepparton. These assessments help families, educators, and support services better understand how a child thinks, learns, and experiences the world.

I am an authentic and bubbly French-Australian human who made the decision to become a counsellor after my own lived experiences of mental and physical health struggles. Born in rural France, where none ever talked about mental health, I began my adult life as a high-achieving corporate professional who believed the only approach to life’s problems was to “get on with it” and just find a way to keep going. Until I realised this didn’t actually work effectively or wholeheartedly and discovered that mental health is a real, normal, valid part of being a human. I now walk the talk and value my physical, mental, emotional health.

Reconnect with yourself and restore inner steadiness. Create a more balanced way of living—where your energy is steady, your needs matter, and life begins to feel more joyful again. Many women reach a point where the way they’ve been living is no longer sustainable—for their energy, wellbeing, or the life they’re ready to step into. I support women to unwind patterns of overgiving and self-abandonment shaped by trauma, conditioning, or difficult relationships—often leading to burnout. This work builds awareness, self-compassion, and a stronger internal foundation so you can relate to yourself in a way that feels safe and grounded.

The women I work with are often carrying more than anyone around them realises: grief after pregnancy or baby loss, postnatal anxiety, birth trauma, burnout, or a sense of self that's quietly shifting. Most arrive when managing alone stops being enough. They need a space that's entirely theirs; somewhere they don't have to perform okay-ness. I work relationally and trauma-informed, at a pace that feels right for you. Progress looks different for every woman, but the space stays the same: warm, unhurried, and genuinely safe.

I am an experienced trauma-&IFS-informed therapist. I work well with people who are ready to do 'the work'. I briefly bring strategies that can be useful to your everyday life initially, relying on modalities such as mindfulness and polyvagal theory, before moving into deeper work based in Internal Family Systems (IFS), if and when the time is right. I assist/guide you to reveal and heal the parts of you that carry thoughts, feelings and behaviours that no longer serve you. It is not always doom and gloom. We work together light-heartedly to safely reveal your unconscious motivations and inner strength, towards lasting healing.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, 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 women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. 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. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
