I’m a Psychologist, Psychotherapist and Career Coach at Pinwheel Psychology in Sydney CBD near Martin Place/Pitt Street Mall and in Potts Point.

My main client focus is anxiety, depression, relationship issues, workplace/career issues, identity & motivation issues – My aim for you and led by you; is for change, awareness and action. Let’s examine your patterns of behaviour and thinking – both conscious and unconscious.

I support the changes you seek or may discover through our therapeutic relationship. Sometimes it’s not a choice but a period when you feel you have no option but to seek support, when the way you have been does not work any more for you and then sometimes it is a firm, bold choice to live in the world differently. Your sessions will be a place where you can truly be open; it’s a time to talk directly about you, a space in your week to focus, to explore, to better understand yourself and your situation. With the guidance and experience of a professional therapist you can discover new insights, explore past and present, develop strategies, gain awareness or just be heard.

Clients meet with me to discuss their relationships, all relationships; personal, social, family , in the workplace and mainly the one you have with yourself. For some clients it is their life transitions, personal goals and inner desires or perhaps motivation and procrastination. A need to understand and manage their symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, perfectionism/self-esteem issues are just a few. Maybe a need to work with their creativity, ambitions or long held personal desires that require reflection, exploration, action and clear strategies. Perhaps you are seeking ways to better navigate the workplace or structure your career,its still all about you and how you engage.

Examining blocks, igniting your motivation to start and/or maintain your focus. Treatment approaches include Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, CBT, Transactional Analysis, Narrative Therapy, Motivational interviewing and Existential Psychotherapy. I employ mindfulness and somatic enquiry in my work also. My style has been described as authentic, direct and warm.

Why Pinwheel Psychology?

A Pinwheel keeps spinning as it turns to face the wind. What are you facing? Like a pinwheel, people turn to face their challenges and choices; they just keep spinning. Your life may feel like it’s spinning out of control, out of time or maybe it’s just not spinning in your preferred direction… Maybe you want to make changes or need another perspective? When you meet with me as your Psychologist you get the benefit of evidence based/scientific models of Psychology, as your Psychotherapist you benefit from my experiential, intensive relational training and Career Strategies from over 18 years of relevant commercial experience. I have been in the workplace myself both here and overseas. I am engaged in ongoing therapeutic training, professional development and living life’s experiences. Every session is clearly mandated prior to meeting. Let me know your personal areas of concern.
