Personality Disorders Psychologists and Therapists in Richmond, VIC
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.

I am a Doctor of Clinical Psychology who trained in the UK and has worked in England, New Zealand and now Australia. My main interest is understanding the meaning behind an individual's suffering. My philosophy is that diagnoses act as a potential obstacle to truly understanding the reality of an individual's experience. Therefore, in practice, I try to refrain from medicalising someone's misery and instead be open to perceiving people's expressions of distress as often logical, rational, predictable and understandable reactions to some form of neglect, abuse, loss and/or trauma.

I am a Melbourne-based clinical psychologist. I work with people who find themselves repeating the same difficult relationship patterns, feeling disconnected or in conflict with others, struggling with boundaries, or feeling stuck in ways of relating that no longer serve them. Therapy can help make sense of these patterns and create opportunities for change.
I also work with people adjusting to life after serious illness, injury, or hospitalisation. I have a particular interest in psychological adjustment following intensive care (ICU), supporting both patients and those close to them. I am registered with the TAC.

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.

Every person is unique, and we each experience life’s challenges in our own way. While similar situations may touch our lives, our responses to them are deeply personal and complex. I believe that therapy should reflect this individuality—there is no one-size-fits-all solution. My approach is tailored to meet you where you are, recognizing that what works for one person may not work for another, even if they’ve faced the same circumstances. Together, we’ll explore your needs, strengths, and goals to find the path that feels right for you.
