GMHBA Counselling in Footscray, VIC
I am a general psychologist with an MBA and have diverse experience in clinical and business settings. I work one-on-one with adults and adolescents with anxiety and panic disorders, depression, overwhelm, attention deficits, trauma, PTSD and complex presentations. I believe that we experience psychological distress when there’s a disconnect between where we find ourselves in our lives and relationships right now, what has happened to us in the past, and what we worry may happen in the future.

How much time do you spend feeling exhausted? Overwhelmed? Telling yourself “as soon as I have some free time, I’ll…” but that time never comes? The endless “stuff” you’re juggling might be due to a shake up in your life, or maybe you’ve spent most of your life trying to figure out how you’re always solving problems but nothing seems to change. Either way, you’ve noticed the pattern and you’re not going to let it continue. It’s time to prioritise what’s important to you, figure out where your energy has gone, and find the ways to get it back.

As someone who had a lived experience of anxiety and depression, I understand that little things can easily overwhelm you. Simple things can feel difficult to do and expend massive nervous energy and effort. Which in turn, makes you feel drained and exhausted. Sometimes to feel better and in control, or even to overcome, you need a listening ear, someone to guide and empower you to make decisions, or encouragement to push through. Other times, you might need interventions for your mental health issues, I can certainly help you with that.

Issues of identity, belonging, low self-worth, people-pleasing, perfectionism, anxiety, periods of depression; essentially, complex histories and how they impact the relationship to oneself and others.

It gets full-on at times. Life feels demanding, people seem harsh or confusing, the hurt feels overwhelming, and the answers seem so far away. Other times, you’re left wondering what the point of it all is, and whether there is more to life. I want to help however I can. Helping people to understand themselves, navigate relationships, perceive the world more clearly, and discover meaning in life brings me great joy. Even better is helping people find their own innate resources to cope and to heal.
