The thing I love most about being a psychologist is being able to see the change that is possible.

Often, starting therapy can be a confusing time. My approach is to spend time for us both to understand your experience beyond symptoms and diagnostic labels. I aim to focus on expanding self-regulation and self-understanding, and appreciate that this is different for everybody. My goal is to help you take an active role in your path towards change, which I hope will continue even after therapy ends.

I use an experiential approach that is transdiagnostic, affect-focused and privileges the here-and-now in sessions. This may feel different to what you are used to, and it helps to stay open and curious to the process. Unfamiliar experiences can be a catalyst for change, and I believe that experiencing ourselves differently in the therapy room is a big part of seeing the changes needed to reduce suffering and improve vitality.

Growing evidence supports the long-term outcomes of Experiential Dynamic Therapies (EDTs), which are psychodyamic models that emphasise in-session emotional processing. I am committed to ongoing training and supervision, and have training in AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy), ISTDP (Intensive Short Term Psychodynamic Psychotherapy), MBT (Mentalization-Based Therapy), as well as other psychodynamic and attachment-informed models.

I am a board approved supervisor and offer supervision, including for general psychologists completing their clinical psychology registrar program.
