Service Notes   Service Quality Provision  
Short and long term counselling for individuals, and when appropriate with their families also. I use a collaborative approach and help clients to identify personal strengths – things they do well, things that are working well for them. I teach a range of strategies, such as stress management, relaxation, assertiveness and thought restructuring, to deal with identified issues and look for ways to help clients use their strengths to find solutions. Every year I undertake professional development and training as I enjoy learning and expanding my skills.
Experience   Orientation  
I have over 20 years experience in treating children, adolescents and young adults across a variety of settings. In 2003 – 2005 I studied at the NSW Institute of Psychiatry to enhance my skills in counselling and my knowledge of mental health issues in childhood and adolescence.
I have presented papers at State, Australian and International Conferences.
I have run a number of workshops for therapists and teachers.		 Every one of us is unique and each client requires a customised approach to allow them to attain the best outcomes from therapeutic intervention. I am positive, holistic in my approach and keen to work collaboratively with people who come into my care.
