About Me

A dedicated Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience in helping people achieve better quality lives

About Me

“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”Maya Angelou, Letter to My Daughter (2008)


A Dedicated Clinical Psychologist

I am a Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist with over 25 years’ experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My career began in social work, where I developed a deep interest in how people grow, adapt, and make meaning of their experiences. This led me to further study in psychology, completing a Bachelor of Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology.

Over the years, I have worked across private practice, public health, juvenile justice, child protection, and community mental health. These experiences have shaped my belief in therapy as a space for reflection, healing, and growth.


My Approach

I describe my style as integrative and creative, drawing on psychodynamic, systemic, cognitive, and behavioural therapies.

In practice, this means:

  • exploring patterns from the past,

  • understanding relationships and emotions in the present,

  • and finding practical steps for everyday challenges.


Qualifications

  • Bachelor of Social Work

  • Bachelor of Psychology

  • Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology

  • Member of the Clinical College of the Australian Psychological Society

  • Fully registered with the Psychology Board of Australia

For more than 15 years, I have run a private practice in Bondi Junction, supporting people through:

  • trauma, anxiety, and depression

  • grief and loss

  • relationship and parenting challenges

  • ADHD, bipolar disorder, and substance use

  • sexual health and intimacy issues

  • major life transitions

I also helped establish INPSYNCH Mental Health and Wellness in Bondi Junction, where I continue to work alongside a dedicated team of professionals.

  • LGBTQI+ clients,

  • survivors of trauma and abuse,
