As an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker (AMHSW), I am a qualified therapist who uses a variety of approaches to best meet my client’s needs. Building a therapeutic relationship in which a client feels safe, heard and understood is pivotal to helping them achieve their goals.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Social Work from Monash University, alongside a Master of Therapeutic Counselling from the University of Greenwich (London). I continue to expand on my skills and knowledge through ongoing professional development.
I began counselling clients in 2008, and have experience working with:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Bereavement
- Cultural displacement
- Health issues, particularly chronic pain
- Family dynamics issues
- Attachment issues
- Relationships
- Stress
- Identity issues
- Neurodiversity
I have previously worked for charitable organisations, in schools and in private practice providing both short and long term counselling. This experience has allowed me to work with individuals from a variety of backgrounds and develop strong working relationships with my clients.
I welcome children, adolescents and young adults into my therapy space. Support and psychoeducation for parents of neurodiverse children is also something which can be offered.
