About me

My practice
I offer psychotherapy, counselling and coaching to individuals, couples and special groups using a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches for dealing with emotional, relationship and psychological difficulties.

I am passionate about the transformative power of therapeutic relationships - something I have witnessed many times in my work and something I know from my own therapeutic experience.

My practice includes:

Short term counselling
Long-term psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy
Relationship therapy

I work with a range of diverse populations in my practice including the LGBTIQ+ community. I have a particular focus on working with gender and sexually diverse couples and diverse relationship configurations.

I am bound by PACFA, The International and the Australian Transactional Analysis Associations codes of ethical conduct.

I am in regular clinical supervision, a learning environment all therapists need to participate in to ensure their clients are cared for in the safest, most professional and effective manner. I also attend my own weekly psychotherapy and have done for many years. In my view, one has to be in therapy to practice it.

My professional life started as a nurse and I worked in a number of clinical, research and teaching roles. The holistic approach to care first championed by nurses in part underpins my work as a psychotherapist. Later I pursued a career in medical journalism and I worked in management roles as an editor, corporate relations manager and in a range of other communications and project roles. My coaching skills are derived from my experience in the media, publishing and corporate worlds.
