Philosophy & Vision
I am passionate about applying current research, neuroscience, and psychological principles to empower individuals. Through collaboration with clients, I aim to enhance their quality of life, navigate challenges, and support them in realizing their full potential. I provide evidence-based assessments and interventions aligned with current best practice protocols. My services include ADHD assessment, as well as treatment and support for anxiety, phobias, stress, adjustment difficulties, trauma, depression, life transitions, belonging and identity concerns, addictions, attachment issues, and co-dependency.
Background
Before starting my private practice, I gained diverse experience in various settings. I worked with an aging population, using reminiscence therapy to help create meaning toward the end of life. I also facilitated group therapy in addiction services, which provided valuable insights into the healing process.
Additionally, I worked in other private practices, conducting cognitive and learning assessments for children and adults. My time at a mindfulness-based clinic centred primarily on complex trauma and EMDR which deepened my understanding of trauma-informed treatment.

For many, taking the first step towards seeking psychology services can be daunting. Recognising the importance of this journey, I offer warm and supportive guidance. Through the application of evidence-based practices, I am dedicated to helping people rediscover their authentic selves and cultivate resilience in navigating life's challenges.
