I am an experienced counsellor and psychotherapist available to help you work through whatever difficulty is in your life right now, including: anxiety, depression, stress, grief, trauma, communication issues, marriage issues, relationships, anger, addictions, bullying, domestic or family violence, or if you are feeling stuck in a problem.
I see both individuals and couples for private counselling sessions and can help you get back on track in your relationships through addressing issues which may be obstacles to communication and connection.
With extensive experience as a therapist at South Pacific Private, Australias leading psychiatric hospital, I support clients in their healing and treatment from trauma and addictions. I have a Bachelor of Counselling degree, and have Level 2 registration with the Australian Counselling Association. I have also trained and worked at Lifeline in crisis counselling, and I currently see both individuals and couples clients in private practice from comfortable rooms in a little cottage in Mona Vale, or online via Zoom or Telehealth.
Working with your feelings and experiences, together we take apart the messy knot of problems, clarify your goals and develop a way to reach them.
In a caring and safe space on the Northern Beaches, we can speak confidentially about any issues.
As your counsellor, I will help you through your challenges utilising strength-based, person-centred and solution-focused therapies, among others.
The counsellor-client relationship is a central part of the healing process. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, in emotional pain, or want to have a better relationship with your loved one, counselling can help you. I am committed to providing the best service possible to you as my client .
