I believe that successful outcomes in therapy can be achieved when there is trust between the client and the therapist. The counselling relationship is therefore crucial to any progress made. I am also an AHPRA board approved supervisor and offer supervision to Psychologists and psychology students.

I am a Senior Clinical Psychologist with over 25 years of experience working across public and private mental health settings with children, adolescents, and adults. I specialise in developmental and relational trauma, PTSD, Complex PTSD, dissociation, personality vulnerabilities, relationship difficulties, and struggles with self-worth and identity. I work within a deeply trauma-informed framework that prioritises emotional safety, trust, and connection, creating a space where you can feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a central framework within my practice.
