I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and am a Level 3 registered member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA). With 15 years of professional experience, I specialize in helping clients manage stress and anxiety, resolve relationship issues, navigate family conflicts, and control anger.

I use a range of therapeutic approaches tailored to your unique needs, including:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This method focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): ACT encourages you to accept your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them.

Mindfulness: By cultivating mindfulness, you can learn to stay present and engaged in the moment, reducing stress and enhancing emotional regulation.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): This approach helps to strengthen the emotional bond between partners by addressing attachment and

bonding issues.Gottman Method: Developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, this method is grounded in research and focuses on improving relationship stability and satisfaction.I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Taking the first step towards a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and I am here to support you in that journey. Our dialogue and treatment plan will be personalized to meet your specific needs, ensuring that you receive the best possible care.I am here to support you.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
