I am an Accredited Social Worker in Australia with 3 years experience working in a diverse range of settings. I possess specialised experience working within the domestic violence, sexual assault sectors and Child Protection as a frontline worker. My practice has a particular focus on supporting individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse. I have experience in providing therapeutic trauma-informed counselling support to clients for a wide range of wellbeing issues including mental health, grief and loss, domestic and family violence, sexual abuse, relationship issues, trauma and parenting issues.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My counselling experience has facilitated the use of a person-centred, strengths-based approach. I will tailor my approach to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
Looking forward to working with you!

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.
