Professional Biography

I am an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker.
I offer trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and neuro-affirming counselling for adults across Australia via online sessions, as well as in person sessions in the inner north of Melbourne.

Whether you're exploring counselling for the first time, or looking to reconnect with support, you’re welcome here. I aim to provide a space that feels grounded, collaborative, and responsive to your individual needs.
Sessions are compassionate, non-judgemental, and guided at your pace. I work with people navigating experiences of trauma, including sexual assault, institutional and gender-based violence, childhood trauma, and challenges related to identity, relationships, sexuality and burnout.
My experience as a Social Worker means I will explore the origins of power. I apply a systemic lens and I will support you to separate self-blame from messages about worth and value that you may have absorbed from our culture.
I believe your trauma is one aspect that has happened to you; it does not define you.
