I am a credentialed therapist based in Australia with 15 years of professional experience, dedicated to providing compassionate and effective support to my clients. My expertise spans a range of areas, including parenting, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), teen counseling, depression, grief and loss and trauma.
Utilizing a person-centred approach, I ensure that each session is tailored to meet the unique needs and experiences of my clients. I also integrate trauma-informed practices to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.
Whether you're coping with the complexities of life or navigating family conflicts or looking for strategies or education about ASD I am here to help.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I am committed to partnering with you on your journey to healing and personal growth.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
