I am a registered Psychologist with over 20 years’ experience and a certified Sound Healing Practitioner trained through Sound Healing Academy International.  I work with adults experiencing stress, anxiety and depression, as well as those navigating life transitions, self-esteem, emotional awareness and personal growth.

 

I provide a safe, welcoming and non-judgemental space, using evidence-based psychological therapies.  Where appropriate, I may also incorporate mindfulness and gentle sound-based relaxation practices to support relaxation, self-awareness and overall wellbeing.

My approach to counselling focuses on working collaboratively with clients to identify goals and create meaningful change.  I tailor therapy to the unique needs of each person and support people to understand and address the barriers that may be preventing them from living the life they want.

​I’m based in Ballina, welcoming clients from across the Northern Rivers region.

​

I have a diverse range of professional experience, from working within community services, private practice and within a correctional setting.

 

My approach works best with clients who are motivated for personal growth and are ready to engage in the process of change.
