As a licensed professional counsellor with a Master's degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy, I am passionate about empowering people to prosper in life. I pride myself on building secure, comfortable connections with my clients, as I have seen over and over that a strong therapeutic relationship is the precursor to lasting growth. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a supportive, empathetic and non-judgmental setting.

Knoxfield, VIC 3180
As a psychotherapist I create a field, I prepare the ground and the conditions, I set processes in motion, I resonate and synchronise with the rhythm of the person. I help the person to centre inside, to anchor in the body, in the present and in reality. What I am most interested in is the relationship people have with themselves. Most problems that occur in interpersonal relationships have to do with conflict within us. My work is about lowering fears, taking small and big courageous steps, regaining the capacity to love, rebuilding trust in ourselves so that we can find and follow our path.

My ideal client is the person everyone leans on, the professional or parent who is an expert at "holding it together." On the surface, they look fine, but underneath they feel a profound exhaustion from constant performing. They navigate burnout, trauma, or life transitions and need a space where they don't have to be "on." Their goal is to stop just surviving and find themselves again. I provide a grounded, trauma-informed partnership tailored to your nervous system. I am a WorkSafe/NDIS provider offering sessions in Hawthorn East or via Telehealth Australia-wide.
