I completed my Masters of Clinical Psychology at the University of Melbourne March 2020, and am registered with AHPRA as a Clinical Psychologist. I love the challenge of formulating for each individual client, and adapting this formulation (and treatment plan) over time as one's presentation or circumstance changes. I am passionate about working alongside clients to help them improve their quality of life, and particularly in empowering clients in their ability to cope with psychosocial stressors. Change is hard; clients do not need to be 100% motivated 100% of the time; but they need to want to want to be motivated some of the time

I have a special interest in the treatment of trauma, in all its forms.

I am an accredited EMDR therapist (EMDRAA) and have found this empirically validated psychotherapeutic approach valuable in facilitating profound healing for a variety of issues.
