Adults Counselling in Toorak, VIC
I have worked across a number of public and private healthcare settings, which has given me exposure to complex and diverse mental health problems amongst adults of all ages.
While diagnostic labels can convey something about your particular challenges, they fail to capture the complexities of your experience—no two people are alike. I will work alongside you to discover what it is that you need to live a fulfilling life, whatever shape that may take. This might involve reducing the impact of symptoms, developing insight into the origins of your thoughts, feelings and behaviour, making sense of past experiences, clarifying what is important to you, and taking action that will lead you in the right direction.

You might be feeling overwhelmed by the demands of living in a neurotypical world that doesn't seem built for the way your brain works. You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, or self-doubt rooted in years of feeling misunderstood, judged, or like you have to mask who you really are. Perhaps you're tired of the pressure to be perfect, afraid to try new things, or constantly worried about how others perceive you. You may feel stuck - held back by internalised ableism, harsh self-criticism, or a fear of not being good enough.

I also offer therapy to those who discovered their biological parents only in adulthood.
I help couples and individuals re-discover their relationships and build stronger connections that bring joy and fulfilment. Instead of simply talking about issues you are dealing with, we will learn practical, effective communication tools that can transform your conversations and help you break through gridlocked issues. And if you feel disconnected from your partner, we will use research-based methods of strengthening your connection so that you can feel closer again.

My psychology practice empowers women to feel hopeful and confident as they navigate major life transitions.
Whether you're rediscovering your identity, processing relationship changes, exploring new career paths, stepping into motherhood, grieving a loss, or facing the unexpected, these experiences can feel overwhelming. You may feel stuck, uncertain, and questioning who you are. Racing thoughts, self-doubt, and expectations can make it hard to move forward. Change often brings a mix of emotions—fear, grief, and uncertainty. It’s easy to feel tempted to give up on working through challenges, but you don’t have to face this alone.
