I am a registered Clinical Psychologist working with individuals with varying mental health concerns. I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Human Resource Management, my honours in Psychology and my Master of Clinical Psychology.
My work is informed by attachment theory. I work under the assumption that you need to fully understand a problem before you can move through it, which often involves looking at early templates of relationships to inform and help understand current challenges. I emphasise the importance of the therapeutic relationship over techniques, although I often draw on strategies and tangible resources to help you in figuring out what is needed.
In therapy I work with individuals looking for a greater understanding of themselves, which typically looks like those who are seeking to understand their patterns in relationships and work towards healthier, more emotionally honest relationships or those wanting to revolve an inner conflict or make a personal decision.
I have a particular passion for working with those in human service roles or individuals who may not be able to articulate their direct concerns or complaints driving them to therapy, but who are instinctively hopeful for more and see the potential to live differently. Others may have specific concerns that they feel need addressing such as:
My clinical position is one of a collaborative manner, whereby I invite you to make meaning of your experience, to explore, and work together to address your concerns. My intention is to help you feel safe enough to say anything and for you to feel energised and confident in your ability to work through your challenges, to reflect and to increase your capacity for enjoyment.
