Counselling has been a very important part of my life - from conversations with close friends to the professional help received from counsellors and psychologists. In the past I have suffered from anxiety and depression and without the help of counselling would have continued to suffer. Let me assure you I have been there in the darkness. When I am able to help people, in the way I have been supported, it is incredibly rewarding. From life's little problems through to the big scary seemingly insurmountable ones I am here to listen and often that's all that's needed for you to get clarity and feel your own power.

I'm a clinical psychologist with experience in both the public and private sector helping teenagers and adults overcome emotional challenges. I believe people need someone to be in the moment with them as they face their feelings in response to everyday struggles and past issues. I prioritise emotional regulation and understanding so people feel empowered to meet their true capacity and overcome life's challenges.

I am a clinical psychologist with over 15 years experience in supporting adults on their mental health journey. I have expertise in working with people who are experiencing challenges in coping with the stress of everyday life - whether that is in managing difficult relationships, parenting, work-related stress or general burnout and anxiety. I am also passionate about helping people break free from childhood and family dysfunction that has impacted on their capacity to live full and meaningful lives. I have particular expertise in treating adults with emotion dysregulation and unhelpful coping behaviours.

I provide online therapy for ‘fringe’ clients: LGBTQI+, non-monogamy/poly, BDSM/kink, neurodivergent, disability/chronic health conditions, sex workers and various ethnic and lifestyle backgrounds, helping with a range of psychological and emotional difficulties. I use a trauma-informed humanistic approach with evidence-based therapies for anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, overwhelm, and relationship issues. Nothing is too strange or too intersectional as I practice radical acceptance and have a wealth of deep experience and understanding of all the above ‘fringe’ issues and backgrounds.

If you are looking for kind, empathic and effective psychological support - I can help. Maybe you're feeling disconnected: from a sense of purpose, from your own body and mind, or from others. You might have experienced really difficult things, and the heritage of these experiences prevents you from living in the now. Maybe emotional, physical or spiritual pain keeps you stuck. You may not have any idea why bad stuff keeps happening - even though your intentions are good. You have made the first, difficult step in seeking help - I can support you to figure out what the next steps may be, together.

I arrived as a refugee with my family back in 1999. My first experience as a psychologist was in trauma field, volunteering my university holidays with STARTTS, non-for-profit organisation helping survivors of trauma. At the time I was a young person, helping other refugee kids and young people assimilate to Australia. Following my university degree, I facilitated childhood trauma paediatric clinics as the only psychologist on board with NSW Area Health for 11 years, working closely with senior paediatricians completing assessments for children, ranging from infants until 16 years of age.

Alvin is a generally registered psychologist who has been in private since 2017. Arriving in Australia at the age of 11, he has learnt from a young age to appreciate and respect the different cultures of the world. Both a challenging and exciting experience, Alvin has started developing an understanding that we are all connected through our shared humanity from a young age. As a practitioner, Alvin conducts CBT, ACT and DBT through a Narrative Therapy style driven model. The narrative approach is collaborative and investigative with the process of working side-by-side towards meaningful solutions.

I support individuals by offering an environment in which they can freely explore the present situations they face alongside their past experiences and future goals. Our work together is not about ‘fixing’ you but rather a process of expanding your understanding of yourself through collaboratively identifying any deeply ingrained patterns of thought, feelings and behaviour you may have knowingly or unknowingly developed in response to your life experience to date.

Have you finally gotten to the point where you're struggling to manage issues you have been holding onto for years? Or Do you often find yourself feeling quite stuck in the present? With the daily hustle of life, it can become very easy to neglect parts of ourselves that really need attention. Often there are unresolved issues or traumas from the past that have never been addressed and keep coming back to remind us that they're still there and need to be attended to. Unfortunately, they can keep coming back if we continue to ignore them.
