Therapy Services
Who I work with
I work with adults (18+) navigating a range of challenges, including anxiety, relationship difficulties, burnout, life transitions, and the ongoing impact of earlier life experiences.
A large part of my work involves helping people understand how earlier experiences can shape current thoughts, behaviours, and relationships, and how to begin changing patterns that no longer feel helpful.
I also have a particular interest in working with people in FIFO roles and those balancing work away from home, where distance, pressure, and isolation can impact both well-being and relationships. Alongside this, I have developed a strong interest in supporting young men, particularly those who may find it difficult to open up or put words to what they’re experiencing.
Having grown up alongside brothers and close male friendships, and after losing people close to me to suicide, I feel strongly about creating spaces where men feel able to speak openly. At the same time, I work equally with women, gender-diverse clients, and people across the LGBTQIA+ community, bringing the same care, curiosity, and respect to every person I sit alongside.
My approach to therapy
Therapy with me is both reflective and practical. We take time to understand what’s been happening for you, while also focusing on tools and strategies that can support change in day-to-day life. I often include between-session strategies, so therapy extends beyond the room in a meaningful way.
My approach is flexible and tailored to you. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Therapy, and Solution-Focused approaches. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I integrate these in a way that fits your needs and goals.
What to expect in your first session
The first session is really about getting to know you and what’s brought you in.
We’ll talk through what’s been going on for you recently, as well as any relevant background or past experiences that may be contributing to how you’re feeling now. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out or to tell your story in a particular way, you can share at your own pace.
I’ll also ask some questions to better understand what you’re hoping to get out of therapy, and we’ll start to think about what direction our work together might take. For some people, that means gaining clarity and support around a specific issue; for others, it’s more about understanding long-standing patterns and beginning to shift them over time.
You’re also welcome to ask me questions about therapy, my approach, or anything you’re unsure about. It’s important that you feel comfortable and that it feels like the right fit.
By the end of the session, we’ll usually have a sense of whether working together feels right, and what the next steps might look like.
Who I may not be the right fit for
To make sure you receive the right kind of support, there are some situations where I may not be the best fit:
Individuals under 18 years of age
Those requiring intensive or crisis-based support (e.g., high suicide risk, frequent hospitalisations, or needing support outside of sessions)
Forensic or legal matters
Specialised treatment for sleep or eating disorders (including Eating Disorder Plans)
Clients accessing services under Chronic Disease Management Plans, NDIS, or WorkCover
If you’re unsure whether this applies to you, you’re welcome to reach out, and we can work out together whether I’m the right fit or whether another type of support may be more appropriate.
