You may be coping well on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or exhausted underneath. Perhaps you are carrying the effects of difficult experiences, repeating patterns you understand but cannot seem to change, or finding that the ways you once learned to cope are now making your life smaller.
People come to see me for many different reasons, including anxiety, trauma, burnout, perfectionism, difficulties with boundaries, relationship patterns, workplace stress and major life changes. I work with adults from a wide range of backgrounds who often find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or disconnected from themselves or others.
If you are looking for a warm, thoughtful and trauma-informed space to explore what is going on for you, I would be glad to meet you!
Therapy with me is a collaborative process supporting you to make sense of your experience, understand the patterns that shape your life and discover how you can walk towards the things that are most important to you.
Whatever we work on, we'll move at your pace.

I am a counsellor, clinical supervisor, university educator and facilitator with extensive experience in trauma, domestic and family violence, sexual assault, relationship dynamics and complex systemic environments.
I hold a Master of Counselling, a Graduate Certificate in Mediation and Conflict Resolution and a Bachelor of Arts. I teach within a Master of Counselling program and provide clinical supervision to counsellors and psychotherapists through The Counselling Supervision Centre.
My work is shaped by a longstanding interest in why people become caught in patterns that once helped them survive, cope, belong or maintain relationships, and what allows those patterns to change.
I am particularly interested in helping people move towards lives with greater choice, connection, dignity and freedom to be fully themselves.
Looking for supervision? Please find me at The Counselling Supervision Centre.
Alongside counselling, I provide practical, evidence-informed training for government, community, education and corporate organisations working with trauma, distress, conflict and emotionally demanding roles. My workshops draw on extensive experience in counselling, domestic and family violence, sexual assault, crisis work, clinical supervision and adult education, and can be tailored to the needs of a particular workforce or setting. Areas of focus include trauma-informed practice, emotional regulation, psychological and relational safety, professional boundaries, difficult conversations, power and organisational dynamics, and sustainable practice for people whose work requires them to hold a great deal. Sessions are thoughtful, engaging and grounded in practical tools to support participants.
