I'm a queer, cis-gendered woman - my pronouns are she/her. My practice is supportive of all gender and sexual identities. I’ve had the privilege of working with a lot of people who’ve talked with me about issues related to their sexuality, their gender, or both. I endeavour to provide gender-affirming care.

I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist- I'm passionate about empowering people towards living the way they want to. I use a strengths-based approach and work with you to help you be in touch with life’s glimmers.  My counselling practice is Trauma Informed.

I have been trained in and draw on a range of evidence based psychological approaches, depending on your needs and preference:

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)

  • Trauma Informed Stabilisation Treatment

  • Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, including Trauma Focussed CBT

  • Solution Focussed Therapy

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

  • Narrative Therapy

  • Schema Therapy

  • Interpersonal Psychotherapy

  • DBT Skills training

  • Clinical applications of Polyvagal Theory

I have worked in health since the 1990s, and with clients and supervisees in both public and private settings with a broad range of issues. I started to make the move into counselling roles midway through the first decade of the 2000s, and started work in Clinical Psychology in 2013.

I have particular interests in compassionate self-care, trauma recovery, clinician well-being, managing life transitions, and in the treatment of anxiety, depression, substance use, living with chronic illness and managing stress. My initial training was in Nursing, where I worked across several health environments, so I have a reasonably good understanding of the intersections between physical illnesses and emotional well being.
