I am a clinical Social Worker and Counsellor in Australia with over 17 years of professional experience working across hospitals, community health and mental health settings. I am passionate about helping clients with managing anxiety, relationships, family conflict, perinatal mental health, carer stress, trauma, grief & loss, eating disorders, & handling parental stress. My primary goal is to help empower people to become their own experts.
I believe that the first step to feeling empowered is to build your self confidence and resilience by teaching you practical and emotional skills to effectively rise above the most challenging stages in life. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. And I will methodically tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am honoured that you have chosen my services to support you on your journey towards clarity and peace.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
