Personality Disorders Psychologists and Therapists in Richmond, 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.

On paper, things might look fine.
But something feels off.
You might feel stuck, unsure what’s next, or like you’ve lost a sense of direction — even though you’re doing “all the right things.”
That’s usually where this work starts.
My approach sits somewhere between therapy and coaching.
We don’t just talk — we figure things out.
Together, we get clear on what actually matters to you, cut through what’s not working, and build a life that feels aligned.

These may include depression, anxiety, phobia, panic attacks, complex trauma, loss and grief, PTSD, emotional overwhelm, sexual abuse, eating disorders, personality disorders, low self-esteem, and relationship problems.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in psychoanalytic theories which focus on gaining a deeper understanding of the self and one’s subjective experience. Rather than targeting symptoms in isolation, psychoanalytic psychotherapy seeks to uncover the underlying unconscious processes that shape patterns of thought, feeling and behaviour.
