Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Psychologists and Therapists in Melbourne, VIC
Often in today's world, we get caught up in so many distractions on the outside that we are not always aware of our internal experiences. We walk around anxious and depressed, with critical thoughts of ourselves and others, and often live a reality that is separate from our own personal wishes and desires. I believe that therapy provides a safe space to step away from all the external distractions and focus on identifying and responding to our emotional world in the most open and connected way, which may have been too painful to do in the past.

My therapeutic approaches are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based and trauma-focused interventions and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

My interest with psychology comes from a natural curiosity about human behavior, that transcends into a genuine passion for helping individuals connect with their sense of aliveness and vitality. I’m an explorer of the human condition, and this is reflected in my therapy sessions as I delve into the stories, behaviours and motivations of the incredible individuals who sit across from me.

For those who want to be themselves - not who they’ve learned to be.

This work suits people who want to understand what’s really shaping their experience, not just manage symptoms, and who are looking for depth-oriented work at a pace that feels safe and respectful.

My work draws on evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT and trauma-informed practice.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who are used to coping well but find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck or burnt out. This may relate to workplace stress, trauma, relationship difficulties or navigating a major life transition. I often work with professionals and people in high-pressure roles who are used to being the one others rely on. Sessions provide space to step back, make sense of what is happening, and develop practical strategies to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
