I am credentialed in Australia with 7 + years of professional work experience. I work at Australia’s largest youth organisation helping 12-25 year old’s with a variety of concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, impulsivity & self-harm, identity & sexuality, trauma and abuse, & eating disorders. I also have a background working with adults, couples and families.
Polyvagal-informed, I specialise in trauma treatment (PTSD and complex trauma) and utilise EMDR, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, somatic and mindfulness-based therapies, attachment theory and cognitive processing therapy. I have a non-pathologising approach and work holistically with all aspects of the human psyche.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Treatment plans are collaborative to meet your unique and specific needs.

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.
