During your initial appointment you will have an opportunity to talk about what has brought you to counselling and your expectations.
Many people prefer to see me on their own but I can consult with individuals, couples, partners, friends or family members. I am experienced in working with groups and communities of people.
My Sydney consulting rooms are centrally located in Darlinghurst & Surry Hills and are easily accessible by public transport. |
As a degree qualified and accredited mental health social worker I am professionally registered with and accountable to the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW). I am also a registered Medicare provider.
I regularly attend one-to-one supervision and relevant professional development training courses.

My counselling training started in 1990 and my experience includes many years of counselling people while employed in organisations such as ACON and services like G-Line and other health & welfare agencies in Australia and overseas.
I have experience working with stress, anxiety (including panic attacks), depression, relationship problems, sexuality & sexual identity concerns (gay, lesbian etc), body image, transition & adjustment (e.g. mid-life crisis) and addiction and dependancy problems. |
I practise narrative therapy which is an approach that values the stories we tell about our lives. I am interested in 'hopes and dreams' as well as stories about things that have happened in your life. I won’t expect you to talk about anything you are not comfortable telling me.
Counselling isn't just about problems. Some people see it as a means of finding more contentment or fulfillment in their lives, as a way to achieve goals or improve their relationships with others. |
