My approach to counselling enables a client to deeply explore the repetitive painful interactions and experiences that may, for example, underlie anger, depression, relationship difficulties, eating disorders, addictions, and the complex effects of trauma.
This therapeutic process supports the growth of new ways of engaging in relationship with oneself and others, and living more creatively. |
The quality of service I provide is maintained through regular supervision of my work, involvement in professional and personal development opportunities, and ongoing study and research. |

Building on a solid background in education and following a time devoted to parenthood, I entered the field of counselling over 20 years ago.
In addition to my counselling work with individuals and couples, I have conducted workshops and seminars for groups, and I regularly present at conferences. I am also involved in the education of counselling students at the University of South Australia, at Adelaide University and at Kranz International College, and I provide supervision to both students and professional counsellors.
I am committed to the professionalisation of counselling, holding several portfolios on the Executive Committee of the Counselling Association of South Australia including representing the Association as a Council Member of the national body, PACFA.
|
I use an integrated approach in my counselling to enable exploration of conscious and unconscious behaviours, emotional experience, and beliefs and attitudes. I value working with the whole person - feelings, mind, body and spirit.
I draw on a range of theory to understand how to facilitate processes of change and growth. These include theory that addresses human development, personality and character, patterns of attachment, and contemporary psychodynamic theory. |
