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.
