What Services are Offered?

I offer individual psychological therapy in a flexible, person-centred format. I have experience working with clients navigating a range of concerns, with particular interests in areas of eating disorders and body image concerns, trauma, neurodiversity, OCD and bipolar disorder.

I welcome individuals with diverse cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds, and aim to create a safe space for individuals of all sexualities, genders, bodies, and abilities.

Services can be accessed privately, through Medicare, or under NDIS funding. Sessions can be held in person or via telehealth.

  • I am credentialled with the Australia and New Zealand Academy of Eating Disorders (ANZAED) meaning I do my best to stay up to date with current research and practices to support my clients.

    I follow a Health At Every Size approach (HAES), meaning I promote safe and equitable access to healthcare regardless of gender, health status, body weight, shape or size.

    I strive to ensure all bodies feel safe here to be heard and understood. I am hear to help you understand your relationship with your body and food, and what may be driving this relationship.

  • I work with neurodiverse clients, both Autistic and ADHD-ers.

    My approach to neurodiversity support is to explore your inner world, make sense of your experiences, and apply strategies that honour and work with your neurodiversity, not change you.

  • Intrusive thoughts can lead to significant shame and discomfort to those navigating OCD. I always aim to have a judgement free space, and reinforce you are safe to explore what you are carrying, and how hard this can be.

    I utilise exposure response prevention, which means we often confront uncertainty related to intrusive thoughts, and delay using compulsions. This can be scary, but we will always navigate it at your own pace together.

  • Navigating a complex or singular traumatic event can be extremely daunting. Sometimes individuals may not be ready to discuss these events, or may worry it is too much for others to carry.

    My approach to trauma informed care is we will always go at a pace that suits you, and we are a team. You are the expert of your experiences, and I hope we can work out how to navigate what your are experiencing together.

  • I also have experience supporting clients experiencing bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, adjustment to change, and suicidality. If you are uncertain whether I may be the right fit for you, please reach out and we can discuss this together.
