I support clients via in-person sessions at Pullenvale or via telehealth (video). For those wanting face-to-face sessions, I work on acreage with a calming view outside and no other people on the premises other than clients, many of whom never see each other.

​

I work with individuals from 17 years old with a range of complex challenges such as late identification of neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-identity issues, and interpersonal issues. I also assess individuals for Autism and ADHD.

​​

I have a special interest in working with neurodivergence, Twice Exceptional presentations of neurodivergence, and issues stemming from late identification. I also love to work collaboratively with my clients to help them see ingrained patterns of beliefs and behaviour that are preventing them from flourishing in life. Finally, I have a special interest in attachment theory and the difficulties we can have in interpersonal relationships due to our individual attachment style. I enjoy helping individuals develop a solid foundation of self that they can then share with the world.

​Mental Health Care Plans

​​

If you would like to obtain a Medicare rebate for up to 10 sessions a year, a Mental Health Care Plan (MHCP) is required by your GP prior to your appointment. Sessions are usually broken up into blocks of 6 and 4 sessions. You will need to revisit your GP after each session block.

​​​​

After the session, payment is made and then I claim your rebate, which takes approximately 1-3 days to be deposited into your bank account. ​
