I am a psychotherapist, lecturer, researcher and writer based in Melbourne, Australia. I have always had a fascination with human subjectivity and, before turning to the practice of psychotherapy, completed postgraduate studies exploring this interest through the fields of literature, philosophy and history. Psychotherapy is a natural extension of my other interest. I believe that the creative intimacy achieved by good therapy has a significant healing power for both body and mind.
I am available in the evenings after 5 pm (Melbourne UTC+10:00).
Currently only offering therapy online via Zoom.
Attachment Theory, CBT, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Existential, Hakomi, Integrative, Person Centred, Psychoanalytic, Psychodynamic, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Systems Theory, Trauma-Informed
My approach is an integrative one: I believe that different therapies each have their place in helping people resolve their problems - it all depends on the person and the problems. I work with clients to determine the nature of these problems and the approach that is best suited to help overcome them.
I adhere to the Australian Counselling (the ACA) Code of Ethics and Practice. I undertake regular supervision with appropriately qualified senior clinicians.
I have a background in the arts and humanities, with strong interests in theatre, literature, philosophy and history. I subsequently trained as a psychotherapist with a focus on integrating psychotherapy approaches both at the technical and theoretical levels.
I have current availability and can organise sessions with one week's notice. All sessions run for approximately 50 minutes.
Please note: I am currently only offering online therapy.
$130 per session.
A sliding fee scale may be negotiated depending on circumstances.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can ask me questions and gauge if I am the right therapist for you.
Bank transfer.

This search for meaning expresses itself through relationships, identity, our place in communities and in society as a whole. A loss of meaning can be destabilising, painful, even catastrophic, for the person experiencing it. Psychotherapy intervenes in these problems by offering a journey of self-exploration in the empathic presence of another person to restore or recreate meaning....
