Individual & Relationship Therapy

I’m a registered psychologist and psychosexual therapist who believes in empowering others at all stages of their lives. I take joy in recognising and celebrating the strengths of my clients, as well as in creating a warm and relaxed space for folks to share their wins, worries and vulnerabilities.

I have a background of working with children, young people and their families in government and non-government child protection agencies. But since starting in private practice in 2021, I have focused primarily on supporting queer and neurodivergent clients aged 16+ to overcome life’s challenges.

Having completed further studies in Psychosexual Therapy in 2020, I also integrate sex therapy into my practice with the goal of supporting people of all genders, sexual orientations, abilities, religions, and cultural backgrounds to enjoy their sexual lives free from pain, stigma, and shame. When I have a spare moment, you may also find me presenting on all things sexual health and sexuality to groups of people.

In sessions, I utilise a number of different modalities such as Acceptance and Committment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFCT; for relationship work) amongst others to meet the needs of my clients, but overall I just try to meet folks wherever they are at when they come into the room (or join me virtually!).

Outside of work, I love travelling, baking snacks, and teaching my dog new/silly tricks!
