Mental Health Care and Skills Building



I am a therapist and researcher focused on supporting women in building confidence, maintaining healthy relationships, and finding fulfilment in their personal and professional lives. With a strong understanding of the psychological, emotional, and social factors impacting women’s mental health, I provide a supportive environment where clients can explore their identities, work through challenges, and develop the resilience to navigate life’s complexities. My therapeutic approach is tailored to the person. It integrates psychodynamic psychotherapy, narrative therapy, dialectical behaviour therapy, and strengths-based methods within a holistic and evidence-based framework.

Beyond clinical practice, I have extensive experience in communications and strategy, having held senior roles in the financial, education, and non-profit sectors. This diverse professional background enriches my therapeutic practice, giving me a deep understanding of workplace dynamics and personal development challenges professional women face.

My most recent research, conducted at the Leichhardt Women’s Community Health Centre in 2025, explored the benefits of a holistic, feminist-centred approach to treating depression in women and the role of gender in mental health. My PhD thesis focused on supporting employees' well-being and motivation during major organisational change.

I volunteer weekly with Mandala Community Counselling Service in Sydney, which offers low- or no-cost psychodynamic psychotherapy for the most in need.

I believe nutrition and physical activity play a dramatic role in our mental health. What we eat and how we move make up a lot of who we are at a cellular level, and I like to consider this as part of the picture when working together.

I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation so you can ask me questions and see if we’d be a good fit, get in touch here.
