About me

My practice
I am a qualified counsellor/psychotherapist based in Canberra who specialises in trauma and addiction. I have extensive experience in the not-for-profit and private sectors, supporting adults with mental health and psychosocial conditions, such as PTSD, CPTSD, substance use disorders, personality disorders, anxiety and depression.

I’m an accredited EMDR practitioner, a registered clinical counsellor with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) and a qualified Social Worker and member of the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW). I have received formal training in EMDR, CBT, Schema Therapy, ACT and Motivational Interviewing, and am a qualified Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) practitioner. I also worked as an Allen Carr’s Easyway therapist for several years (supporting individuals struggling with alcohol addiction) and have an in-depth understanding of that approach.

I provide online psychotherapy sessions to adults (aged 18 and over) across Australia. Sessions are conducted via the Zoom platform, ensuring privacy, confidentiality and convenience for the client. I also provide in-person sessions to clients within Canberra (via counselling rooms based in Turner, ACT).
