You may be wondering whether I am the right fit for you, especially when it comes to opening up to someone new. I understand that starting counselling can feel unfamiliar, and at times, challenging. My priority is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can feel comfortable and confident to express yourself freely.
I take a collaborative approach to counselling, encouraging you to take the lead in your sessions. Together, we will explore your goals and what you would like to achieve, helping you build a sense of control and direction in your personal journey. I recognise that vulnerability can take time, and we will work at a pace that feels right for you as we develop a deeper understanding of your mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing.
I aim to provide tailored strategies and psychoeducation that align with your individual needs. With greater understanding often comes increased self-awareness, empowering you to make meaningful and lasting changes.
I have experience working with adolescents presenting with anxiety, depression, friendship and relationship challenges, school-related stress, grief and loss, and behavioural or anger-related concerns. I also support adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, men’s mental health concerns, and life transitions. I particularly enjoy working in relationship counselling, including couples and family therapy, and supporting individuals to strengthen their connections and communication.
I hold a Bachelor of Psychology from Victoria University and a Master of Counselling from Monash University. I am a registered member of the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia.
It would be a privilege to support you as you navigate your journey and work towards meaningful change.
