Trauma Support Providers

Professional Biography

I am a registered psychologist and certified EMDR therapist and member of EMDRAA. Over the last 15 years, I have provided trauma-informed support to clients throughout Queensland with complex and developmental trauma, PTSD, substance use issues, depression and anxiety, grief and loss, personality and dissociative disorders, and eating, somatic and sleep disorders.

I’m based in Queensland’s Southeast and worked through covid, in both Cairns and Brisbane, starting Artemis Psychology Services in early 2020. Although I predominately work online, I see clients in person and travel to Cairns regularly. I prefer a casual and friendly approach to help you feel as comfortable as possible. I work with men, women and youth, 16 & over. I have worked for DV Connect, 1800RESPECT, Living Well and other specialist sexual assault services throughout Qld.

My approach is authentic, curious, and objective. I’m upfront, believing that it is important for us both to be able to speak our truth, in a respectful and gentle way. My role, as your therapist, is to challenge you to challenge yourself and mentor you to successfully navigate towards your goals.

I’m open, honest and transparent. I see therapy as a two-way street; it’s like a therapeutic dance that we engage in together. Therapy is about connecting with oneself while being safely guided by another. Therapy represents the push-pull of connection, trust, and attunement between us both.

I am currently accepting new clients. No bulk-billing but reduced fees can be negotiated for people in genuine financial distress.
