Trauma Support Providers

Professional Biography

I have lived experience of complex trauma from childhood and adulthood and many years of being a client myself before training as a counsellor. I understand that trauma underlies many mental health presentations and know that unless this is treated there is no sustained improvement.

Having eventually found trauma therapy for myself and seen a great recovery, I became passionate about doing the same for others by combining the deep empathy that comes from lived experience with the best training in trauma therapy.

In my most recent role for the Supporting Recovery funded long term therapy therapy program, all my clients were victim survivors of complex trauma. I also counselled many clients with trauma in all the counselling jobs I have had including at SANE Australia.

I am very experienced in making referrals and working with other kinds of support providers as I have worked for several not for profit organisations. I have good knowledge of the kind of services that are available to help victim survivors of trauma whether that is psychiatry or practical support.

In my private work, I offer videocall and phone sessions for individuals over 18 only. I do an assessment during the first one to three sessions and ask your feedback on the treatment plan I have developed. My private fee is $137 for 50 minutes. I am eligible to become an approved Victim Services Counsellor in April 2026 which gives clients 22 funded sessions.
