I am an experienced counsellor with Pacfa and have experience working across many life stages - Ante natal and post partum anxiety and depression ( Peri natal mental health), life transitions, relationship changes and couple issues. I have worked with those having suffered trauma, abuse, domestic violence and betrayal trauma. I work somatically - understanding our bodies response to stress - and believe this is a powerful therapeutic tool. I work with Mindful Cognitve Behavioural therapy, Acceptance and commitment therapy, Dialectical Behaviour therapy and have worked with Emotion focussed therapy, understanding the deep impact our emotions. play in our mental health and well being.

I have experience working with Grief and loss, which affects so many areas of life, and offer you the time to process the pain of your grief whilst understanding the impact of your loss.

I have an understanding of migration, cross-cultural issues, divorce and separation, blended family difficulties and estrangement, with knowledge of ways to manage these complex situations.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
