Psychologist, Psychotherapist

In Person + Online Therapy Australia-wide
Philosophy & Vision
I work with adults and young adults who are experiencing a range of mental health difficulties as well as more broadly defined life and relationship challenges.
In my work I have found that people are often exploring how to heal, how to hold overwhelming experience, how to navigate complexity in relationship, how to come through psychological pain and distress.
Each person has their own reasons for seeking therapy and their own sense of what they would like the process to provide.
My commitment is to offer a confidential space where I listen with care and respect and where we work together to bring deeper understanding to your experience.
If you are considering therapy and would like to discuss the possibility of working together, I welcome you to be in touch.

Therapy Approach
My approach is primarily informed by a psychodynamic perspective whilst integrating understandings from cognitive, behavioural, and mindfulness-based orientations.
A basic premise of the psychodynamic approach is that finding ways to encounter and talk through underlying aspects of experience can open up new modes of understanding and relating.
In sessions we give time and space to elements of life which might be unfelt, unspoken or difficult to articulate. We think through the patterns and themes that emerge and seek new capacities to hold and work with the complexity of psychological life.
