Therapy

Therapy offers a space to be with yourself in a different way — to make sense of your experiences, explore what’s been feeling hard, and find new ways of relating to yourself and others.

You might be feeling stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by emotion, or unsure of how to move through a transition. Or maybe you’re simply curious to understand yourself more deeply.

Whatever brings you here, therapy is a space to slow down, be met with curiosity and compassion, and explore what may be beneath the surface.

Together, we’ll work at your pace, making sense of your experience and gently creating space for more clarity, connection, and possibility.

  • Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or constantly under pressure?

  • Navigating relational challenges like breakups, disconnection, trust issues, or uncertainty about your current relationship?

  • Moving through a big life transition or identity shift?

  • Beginning to notice patterns in how you relate, especially in close relationships?

  • Struggling to manage conflict or maintain healthy boundaries?

  • Wanting to build deeper, more secure connections — whether with a partner, friends, or family?

  • Wanting to develop more self-trust, confidence, and inner stability?

  • Ready to start feeling more like yourself again, or discover who that really is?

Are You..

Therapy can offer you a supportive space to unpack these experiences — curiously, collaboratively, and at your own pace.

My Approach

Often, patterns live not just in the mind, but are also intertwined with the body, which is why I integrate somatic and nervous system approaches into my work.

My style is warm, curious, and collaborative.

My practice is integrative, drawing on attachment theory, parts work, somatic therapies, polyvagal theory and emotion-focused therapy.

I offer an integrative blend of:

  • Talk therapy – to support insight, self-understanding and integration.
    Experiential processes – to access deeper, sometimes unconscious content to facilitate self-awareness and healing.

  • Somatic therapy – to track and release emotions and trauma stored in the body, and regulate the nervous system.

  • Relational skill-building – to enhance your capacity for conscious communication, boundary setting, and navigating difficult relational dynamics.

 WHAT TO EXPECT

How We’ll Navigate This Path Together

01

Book a FREE Intro Call

This is a chance for us to connect, chat about what’s bringing you here, and see if working together feels like the right fit. If it does, we’ll find a time for your first session and gently begin the process together.

02

Initial Session

The first session is a chance for us to settle in and get to know each other. You’ll have space to share what’s brought you here and what you’re hoping for. I’ll also ask some questions about your life and experiences to help me understand the broader context of your story.

03

Collaborative Planning

Together we’ll co-create a plan that aligns with your goals and what feels most supportive for you. This shared understanding becomes the foundation for our work going forward.

04

Ongoing Sessions Together

Therapy tends to be most supportive when sessions are held regularly, but the pace is always guided by what feels right and sustainable for you. Together, we’ll find a rhythm that offers the steadiness and space you need to explore, reflect, and move toward your goals.

  • For in-person sessions, I am based in Caulfield North and Elsternwick. Alternatively, I also see clients online.

  • Psychotherapy is a process of deep work. For that reason, I tend to work with people over the longer term so there is space for meaningful exploration and change.

    Regularity and rhythm in sessions are an important part of this process, and weekly or fortnightly sessions tend to support the depth and continuity of work psychotherapy invites, especially when we are starting our work together.

    That said, we can decide together what feels right, based on your needs, goals, and what life looks like for you right now.

  • Yes. Everything you share in therapy is kept confidential, with a few legal exceptions. We can talk through confidentiality and its limits during your first session.

  • Sessions typically involve talking through what’s present for you — thoughts, emotions, patterns, memories — in a safe, confidential space. Depending on your needs, we may explore somatic awareness, relational dynamics, or experiential processes to support deeper healing and insight.

  • Unfortunately, psychotherapy is not currently covered by the Mental Health Care Plan Medicare rebate.

    While a Mental Health Care Plan typically offers up to 10 subsidised sessions per calendar year, psychotherapy sessions can still leave you with a similar out-of-pocket cost.

  • Individual sessions are $150 for 60 minutes.
