About Me 

I am a registered psychologist accredited by the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA). I have experience supporting children, adolescents, adults and families across a range of educational, community, clinical and private settings.

I completed my Master of Psychology at Monash University, where I was awarded the Academic Medal for Excellence in Graduate and Postgraduate Coursework Study for achieving the highest academic result in my faculty. I have also recently undertaken specialist training in couples and systemic therapy with Relationships Australia Victoria (RAV) and have a professional endorsement in Educational & Developmental Psychology. 

I foster a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for my clients, and work collaboratively with families, schools and health care professionals. I am passionate about empowering individuals of all ages to find their inner strength and resilience, set healthy boundaries, overcome fears, and establish meaningful and rewarding relationships.

My approach to therapy is eclectic, as I draw from a number of theoretical perspectives and conceptual frameworks. I have training and experience in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Play Therapy, Interpersonal Process Therapy (IPT), and Feedback Informed Therapy (FIT).

When appropriate, I use mindfulness, relaxation and experiential techniques, including meditation and progressive muscle relaxation. I also provide psychoeducation about certain issues, and offer practical strategies when needed. This might involve role-playing in sessions, discussing various coping skills, setting goals, or establishing tasks or behavioural experiments to complete at home.

I am a registered provider with Medicare, the TAC (Transport Accident Commission) and the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme).
