I am a Certified Practising Counsellor and an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, working in private practice in the Goulburn CBD. I also work as a therapist at the Southern Highlands Addiction Retreat in Canyonleigh.

Before starting my private practice, I worked in a psychiatric hospital as a mental health social worker. Prior to that, I worked as a medical social worker in a public hospital. Working as a social worker led me to realise that making a personal connection with someone- that leads to positive change - is my passion. I became accredited as a Mental Health Social Worker and am continuing to study psychotherapeutic techniques.

My approach is creative, compassionate and curious. Utilising an integrated therapeutic approach; I draw on various therapeutic modalities to find the most effective way to work with you so you can reach your goals. I believe it is important to embrace all aspects of being in therapy- body, soul and spirit.
