I am passionate about creating a foundation of trust upon which to base the work we do together. I value compassion, empathy, openness, equality, inclusivity and social justice. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for clients and welcome any and all feedback.
Clinical Psychologists are trained in all areas of acute and chronic mental health disorders and concerns, and across the lifespan.
My approach is individualised to suit the person I am working with. Over 25 years, I have trained in many different therapy approaches that I can draw on to suit my client and their preferences. These include but are not limited to Psychodynamic Interpersonal Therapy, CBT, ACT, Schema Therapy, DBT, CBT-E, AFT, SSCM.
I adhere to the principles of Health at Every Size (R), which is weight inclusive, non-diet and trauma informed approach to improve all facets of health without focus on weight or weight change.
I completed a Doctorate of Psychology (Clinical) at the University of Melbourne and conducted research into Body Image Disturbance and Anorexia Nervosa at Honours and Doctoral level. I have a special interest in eating disorders and body image concerns and working with people to heal their relationship with their body. I am an Eating Disorder Credentialed Clinician through the Australia and New Zealand Academy of Eating Disorders and a Board Approved Supervisor.
I understand that seeking help can be daunting, and I strive to answer any questions, spend time understanding what you are looking for and create connection from our first contact.
