I’m a registered clinical counsellor and a Gestalt psychotherapist. I work with people who feel stuck, disconnected from themselves and others and whose inner world can be a harsh place at times. Are relationships difficult to navigate, you frequently feel overwhelmed or “not good enough” and have a hard time setting boundaries? Have you developed coping strategies that are no longer working or aren’t very healthy? I will support you in learning to understand what’s in the way of you living a fulfilling and meaningful life. You’ll get to know yourself better and gain new skills and strategies for tackling life’s challenges.

Ages 16+. I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist who works with eating disorders, body image and self-worth - as well as general mood and life concerns. I believe that healing (if that's what you're looking for) looks and feels different for everyone. My approach is gentle and curious, embracing imperfection and placing you as the expert of your own experience. I work with a range of holistic, non-pathologising and anti-oppressive frameworks within counselling. I work collaboratively to make sense of your physical and emotional experiences, and unpack ideas about bodies and worth.

Hi, I’m a Psychologist with a private practice in Bondi Junction. In my work I have found that people are often exploring how to heal, how to hold overwhelming experience, how to find some relief and understanding in the midst of psychological distress, how to navigate complexity in life and relationship.

Before I worked as a clinical psychologist, I was a professional musician. This line of work taught me a lot. I found that the best music is made when one listens carefully, and responds to what is happening in the moment, rather than simply reciting familiar material. I bring the same philosophy to my work as a psychologist. It is incredibly important to first listen, and deeply understand the goals of the individual, which then guide the direction of therapy.

Are you struggling with your relationship? Having issues with: communication as you don’t feel like you’re on the same page, conflict resolution - as nothing seems to get resolved, feel like you’ve lost the intimacy and closeness, and you no longer trust one another, are you struggling with sex, finances, house responsibilities, parenting or in-laws? You've tried everything you can think of, but nothing seems to change. The love is still there and you want the relationship to work, you're just not sure how to go about it.

Our behaviours and feelings (emotional or physical symptoms) can be indicative to our state of mind. I believe anything that presents itself is asking to be acknowledged. We therefore owe it to ourselves to make the time and attend to the matter at hand. I have a client - centred approach, and work according to the individual's pace. I facilitate space for the presented issues to be explored and work towards obtaining peace and healthy function. I have an eclectic approach and choose interventions suitable to the individual client.
