Professional Counselling & Psychotherapy Services
With over three decades of dedicated experience in mental health support, I hold a Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy and specialise in evidence-based therapeutic approaches grounded in neuroscience. My practice focuses on empowering individuals and couples to navigate emotional regulation, relationship dynamics, and personal growth through empathetic, non-judgmental guidance. I integrate mindfulness techniques and self-awareness strategies to address anxiety, depression, grief, and behavioural patterns that hinder fulfilling living.As a lecturer at the Australian College of Applied Psychology, I contribute to advancing counselling methodologies while maintaining active clinical practice. My work with the LGBTI community and expertise in processing identity loss through mental health diagnoses underscores my commitment to inclusive, transformative care. By collaboratively designing tailored pathways, I help clients reclaim agency over their health and happiness through practical coping strategies and deeper self-exploration.

Services
Individual Counselling
Tailored one-on-one sessions address emotional regulation, anxiety, and depression through evidence-based techniques. Clients explore behavioural patterns and develop coping strategies while building self-awareness. The therapeutic process focuses on neuroscience-informed methods to reframe negative thought cycles and foster personal growth.
Couples Therapy
Specialised support for relationship conflicts helps couples rebuild trust and communication. Sessions address destructive interaction patterns while fostering emotional connection. The approach focuses on restoring intimacy through understanding underlying emotional needs and developing responsive communication strategies for lasting relationship improvements.
Grief Counselling
Professional guidance helps process various forms of loss while maintaining connection to past experiences. The therapeutic approach addresses stalled grieving processes and identity changes associated with significant life transitions. Clients learn to transform grief into healing while preserving meaningful connections to their personal history.

Sessions focus on identifying physiological responses and cognitive distortions that maintain anxious states. Clients develop self-care tools and mindfulness practices to regulate nervous system responses and regain emotional control.
