Mental health
support in Thornbury & Brunswick


About

I’m a psychologist working with adults in Melbourne’s inner north.

I support clients to move through difficult times, reconnect with themselves, and break patterns that have been holding them back.

I have a particular interest in individuals with adult ADHD diagnoses. Discovering neurodivergence as an adult can be complex process of adjustment and reevaluation.

I hold a Masters of Clinical Psychology from the University of Melbourne, and have completed additional training in psychotherapy. I worked for over 10 years in large organisations so have solid understanding of life beyond the therapy room.

Approach

My style is warm and curious. I consider it a great privilege to do this work and I appreciate the opportunity to learn about each new client.

My practice is grounded in humanistic psychotherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). I draw on an range of additional contemporary therapeutic approaches, particularly schema and attachment therapies. I also have specific training in treating post-traumatic stress disorder. Overall, however, I prioritise the therapeutic alliance over specific modalities.

Fees

Sessions are $220 per session and last for 50 minutes. Clients with a Mental Health Treatment Plan from their GP receive a rebate that reduces the cost to $118.45 per session.

A limited number of reduced-fee places are available for those in constrained financial circumstances.

Location

I see clients in two locations in the inner north, and one location in the south.
