I am passionate about my role as a psychologist. Having lived and personal experience of Autism and ADHD I am a keen advocate for inclusion, support and belonging and my career up to date has focused on working with neurodivergent populations and am passionate about neuro-affirming care.

 I attend regular professional development and continuously strive to improve my practice. I am one of a small number of Australian psychologists licensed to deliver NeuroBears © - an online, UK based program for 8–14-year-olds who are new to understanding their autism. The program was developed for, and in collaboration with, autistic young people.

Having previously worked in the disability sector as well as in a private practice setting, I have supported many children, teens and adults who have sought assessment for autism and ADHD. My aim is to guide you through the assessment process with care, consideration and understanding. I offer a counselling style that is thoughtful, with a focus highlighting individual strengths while also supporting clients with affirming strategies that will help you reach your therapy goals. I am a strong advocate for neuro-affirmative work and aim to support individuals to explore, develop and embrace their neurodivergent identity.

I am  an empathic clinician, offering clients a warmth and positive regard so they feel respected, valued and safe in exploring parts of their life that contribute to their distress. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is central, and work from a person centred, strength based and trauma informed perspective.

Treatment focuses on supporting clients through a neuro-divergent affirming lens, and is modelled on the social model of disability. Recognising that each of us present with different challenges, and have a unique set of strengths. 

The sensory experience of clients is vitally important and  I welcome feedback on any environmental sensory needs that will help clients feel comfortable in the space. 

I have a genuine care for my clients and will assist them to identify areas of their lives that are challenging, so that we can work together in developing skills and strategies that strengthen relationships and connections to self and others. I employ sound, evidence-based practices to ensure clients are receiving a therapy approach that improves their mental well-being and gives them the confidence to live a full-life. I am a diligent, conscientious and genuine practitioner, and support has assisted many individuals and families to improve the quality of their relationships and lives.
