ABOUT

​I am a registered (ACA level 2) psychotherapist with a Master's degree in Counselling. I see individual clients (25yrs +) West Preston/ Reservoir (easily commutable from all Northern Suburbs of Melbourne).

 

I work with adults,  on a one-to-one basis who want to improve their mental health or who would like to change or discover something about themselves. This includes those who may be struggling with relationships and life transitions and a wide range of mental health issues. I help clients with issues such as  depression/anxiety, obsessive thoughts, relationship issues, addictions, complex/relational trauma, emotional and nervous system regulation, dissociation and chronic perfectionism.

 

I am a neuro-affirming, neurodivergent therapist and am passionate about working with neurodivergent clients. Whether officially diagnosed, self-diagnosed or curious about your brain difference, I'd love to support you on your journey. Many of my clients are either Autistic, ADHDers or those with sensitive nervous systems, sensory differences and/or obsessive-compulsive traits.  

 

 I have a passion for maternal mental health and transition to parenthood for both mothers and fathers as well as supporting parents of neurodivergent children.

 

I am an integrative therapist and base my work on the neurobiology of trauma & attachment and memory re-consolidation —the neuroscientific theory behind therapeutic change. I draw from therapeutic modalities such as parts work/Internal Family Systems (IFS), Polyvagal Theory, Somatic Psychotherapy/Sensorimotor Processing, Somatic Experiencing, Structural Model of Dissociation, Interpersonal Neurobiology, Coherence therapy and AEDP Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Processing.
