    My comprehensive experience as a registered psychologist working in private practice has provided me with a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health concerns, and their impact on wellbeing and quality of life. I am committed to establishing a safe therapeutic space that supports collaboration and curiosity. Together we will begin a journey of uncovering how your experiences and cognitive-emotional processing of them has been influential in shaping your present reality. In our sessions, we will carefully attend to your needs and work toward personal growth and healing. My aim is to help you to make sense of both inner and outer experiences, as well as empower you to create meaningful change.

  • Founder + Practice Director
    BA(Hons) MPsych (Clinical) DPsych (Forensic), MAPS

    I am a registered clinical and forensic psychologist, as well as psychoanalytic psychotherapist with diverse experience across private mental health and forensic public sectors. Therapy begins by building a collaborative and affirming relationship that provides the foundation for meaningful life change by supporting open, explorative and relational processes. My focus is on therapy that deepens understanding, connects with inner experiences, makes sense of the past and brings to awareness unhelpful patterns of thought and behaviour. Together we will enhance your strengths and celebrate your courageous moments as you become empowered to assert mastery over problems, and redefine the relationship you have with yourself, others and the world.

  • BA (Hons) MPsych (Clinical), MAPS

    I am a registered clinical psychologist with a depth of experience gained through working in private practice, as well as providing intensive support within outpatient mental health services. My approach to therapy is integrated, sensitive, and committed to meeting your therapeutic needs in the present moment. We will work toward building a collaborative therapeutic relationship that inspires curiosity and creates space for honest communication. Becoming empowered to create change is an important aim of therapy that involves exploring and making sense of your individual history, including observing how problems have grown in your life. Over time we will develop a shared understanding of the way your experience informs your relationships and self-concept as we work together to form new perspectives, nurture self-compassion and establish more helpful patterns of thinking and being.
