SERVICES
I am passionate about helping clients to identify their own path toward greater fulfilment according to their values and goals. This path may involve exploring how you experience thoughts and feelings in your everyday life. It may also involve exploring choices to act and cope in ways that are helpful to improving your meaningful engagement in life.
With children and families, I work systemically with a focus on attachment relationships. This involves increasing the young person’s independent coping skills as well as supporting parents to identify and respond to their young person’s developmental needs.
I hold Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) endorsement as a Clinical Psychologist and have worked in a range of settings including non-profit organisations, government services, educational settings and private practice.
Telehealth is also available.
I provide evidence-based treatment for adults, adolescents, children and families which is informed by Contextual Behavioural Science and may include the following approaches:
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy
• Schema Therapy
• Attachment-focused therapy in a systems framework
• Behavioural Analysis
Building connection is key to well-being – moments of connection with people and with experiences which hold the greatest meaning for you.
