I am an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker with a background in working with adults, teens, children and families.

I take a holistic approach to therapy that takes into account the link between body, mind and environment. I work from the foundation of establishing a therapeutic relationship that is respectful, kind and collaborative. I will work with you to set goals for therapy that align with your values and the outcomes that you are seeking. My focus is on providing you with practical strategies and tools that fit your particular circumstances.

I am often inspired in my work through witnessing how addressing current challenges within ourselves and our relationships, can lead to healing and growth beyond our experiences of adversity and trauma.

In my practice I utilise my training in a number of therapeutic approaches such as DBT, ACT, narrative therapy, and the Gottman Method of relationship therapy.   I also draw from the specific training I have completed in working with trauma- this has included training with the Australian Childhood Foundation, Bessel Van Der Kolk, Dan Siegel and Kent Hoffman. I am a Somatic Experiencing practitioner.

I work with individuals, couples and families.

I have Masters level training in supervision and have worked in roles consulting with schools and other organisations to support them to move towards integrating trauma informed approaches.

Individual sessions are an hour in length ($230.00 and couple's and family sessions are 1.5 -2 hours in length ($300.00). Medicare rebates of $85.20 are available with a Mental health care plan and referral letter from your GP. Consulting work is negotiated on a case by case basis.
