- PACFA
My focus is to strengthen your wellbeing and capacity to overcome and transform challenges. I do that by helping you to connect with yourself in deeper way, and find meaning. I have 22 years experience in the community services and not for profit sector, firstly in social work, and then 10 years ago I expanded into psychotherapy / counselling and teaching meditation. My psychotherapy / counselling experience includes agency and private practice settings, face to face and tele-health modalities, and I have worked with a large range of clients helping with a broad range of issues including stress and anxiety / panic, depression, grief and loss, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, existential concerns, gender diversity & sexuality and addiction recovery. I work in a person-centred, trauma informed, somatic based and process experiential way, where relationship is at the heart of healing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
