Bachelor of Psychology

Master of Social Work
I am a registered psychologist and have also studied social work and law. I am passionate about assisting clients holistically and supporting clients to advocate for changes in their lives. I am empathetic, sensitive, respectful, open to feedback, and have a gentle sense of humour. I enjoy assisting clients to feel less distress, gain more confidence, better understand themselves, make changes, and reach their goals.
I work with people with many different and often co-occurring concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, neurodiversity (including ADHD and autism), addiction, adjustment issues, LGBTIQ+ issues, as well as grief and loss. My experience extends across various contexts including individual counselling settings, schools, prison group programs, court-mandated group programs, crisis lines, and with people in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
My approach is tailored collaboratively with each individual, and I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities including Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT). My law background means I can readily understand legal issues clients may be experiencing and I enjoy providing more nuanced emotional support as my clients navigate legal processes.
Whether it’s time to invest in yourself, make some changes, or approach something challenging, if you feel ready to reach out for some additional support, I am keen to work with you.
