Professional Biography

I am a Credentialed Mental Health Nurse, Counsellor & Psychotherapist with specialist qualifications, training and experience in working with complex trauma, mental illness, grief and loss.
My style is collaborative, strength based and trauma informed within the safety of the therapeutic relationship. My intention is to create a safe, non-judgemental and supportive environment to engage in a process of reflection and exploration of the issues that may be troubling or challenging for you.
I offer Counselling (usually short term) or longer term Psychotherapy and will be guided by your needs and your particular life situation to help you understand what has happened to you. With more awareness and support you can reconnect with what’s important to you and use this as a guide for future life choices and strengthen strategies to enhance your coping resources.
To ensure my clients receive the best possible care I have regular Clinical Supervision. This offers an important opportunity to reflect on my practice in a structured way. I also attend ongoing Professional Development sessions to keep up to date.
My clinical space is located in Dee Why. The room is quiet and has plenty of natural light. It is situated on the first floor overlooking trees at the rear of a business complex.
Appointments are usually available within the week on Thursdays, 8am – 6pm and at other times by arrangement.
