About me

My practice
About Me
Following a long career in music education, where I supported individuals in developing confidence, expression, and personal growth, I transitioned into the counselling profession as a natural extension of this work. I completed my counselling degree with a strong focus on trauma informed practice and in the past 5 years have specialised in supporting clients experiencing single incident trauma, complex trauma, and PTSD.
I am an Accredited EMDR Practitioner and a narrative therapist. My clinical approach integrates EMDR with evidence informed talk therapies, including narrative therapy, to assist clients in understanding the impact of their experiences, re authoring unhelpful narratives, and restoring a sense of agency and coherence in their lives. I aim to provide a therapeutic environment that is safe, inclusive, and grounded in respect and collaboration.
To support clients with demanding schedules—including full time workers, FIFO professionals, and those seeking a concentrated therapeutic format—I offer EMDR intensives on Fridays and Saturdays – by arrangement. These extended sessions provide an efficient, structured, and focused pathway for individuals wishing to engage in deeper trauma processing within a shorter timeframe.
My practice is inclusive and affirming, welcoming to all ages and clients of all identities and backgrounds. Nestled close to the coast in Seaford, South Australia, I also offer Telehealth sessions wherever you are.
