Session Length and Location

Sessions are 50 minutes long and held in my consulting space at my Potts Point office.

How I Work

My expertise allows me to guide you through challenges like past trauma, relationship issues, and navigating life transitions. I create a warm, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood. My work with diverse clients through organizations like ACON and the Ankali Project has further enriched my understanding of human experience.

Who I Work With

I welcome a diverse range of clients, from adults, to adolescents and young people. I have extensive experience supporting clients from the LGBTQI+ community, creative fields, academia, and mental health professionals. I also work with clients living with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), and with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).

Supporting LGBTQI+ Clients

As a therapist trained in working with LGBTQI+ clients, I understand the unique challenges you may face. Therapy can provide a safe space for self-discovery, identity development, and coping with anxieties related to sexuality. We can work together to build and maintain self-esteem, and navigate relationships. Contact me today to discuss how I can support you.

Is Psychotherapy Right for You?

If you're struggling emotionally, navigating life transitions, or seeking personal growth, psychotherapy can be a powerful tool. It offers a safe space to explore concerns and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Therapy can help you to develop more fulfilling relationships, assist you in tolerating a wider range and intensity of feelings and emotions, and give you a greater understanding of yourself and others.

Psychotherapy vs. Counselling

Both psychotherapy and counselling involve talking therapies for emotional concerns. Key differences lie in focus and depth:

  • Counselling: Targets specific issues within a shorter timeframe (6-12 sessions)

  • Psychotherapy: Explores underlying causes through past experiences for long-term growth.

Counselling addresses present difficulties, while psychotherapy focuses on root causes for lasting change. The length of therapy depends on your individual goals and needs. We'll discuss your goals and preferences during the initial consultation to determine a suitable timeframe. Therapy is collaborative, and session frequency can be adjusted as needed.

Signs You Might Benefit:

  • Feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or depression.

  • Struggling with relationships or communication.

  • Experiencing past traumas impacting your present life.

  • Facing a major life change and needing support.

  • Seeking greater self-understanding and personal growth.

How Psychotherapy Can Help

Psychotherapy can address a wide range of challenges, including:

  • Life transitions (marriage, divorce, pregnancy, career shifts)

  • Relationships (communication, boundaries, family/romantic difficulties)

  • Trauma & Loss (past trauma, grief, loss)

  • Mental Health (anxiety, depression, panic attacks)

  • Self-Esteem (building confidence and self-worth)

  • Personal Growth (exploring creativity, identity, finding meaning)

  • Body Image (developing a healthy relationship with your body)

  • Workplace Issues (stress, bullying, harassment)

I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help. If you're unsure if psychotherapy is right for you, I offer consultations to discuss your concerns and explore if it can be a good fit. Contact me today to take the first step towards a more fulfilling life.
