Experience
I am a PACFA-registered Clinical Counsellor with a Graduate Diploma of Counselling, Bachelor of Education, and over 2,000 hours of clinical experience specialising in Employee Assistance Programs (EAP), youth, and children’s mental health. I provide evidence-based counselling using CBT, ACT, Solution-Focused Therapy, strengths-based approaches, mindfulness, and EMDR (EMDRAA approved).
With a background in education and extensive experience as a youth counsellor, and EAP clinician, I have specialist expertise in supporting children, adolescents, and adults through a broad range of mental health, trauma, workplace, and life challenges. I am highly skilled in crisis intervention, suicide risk assessment, and trauma-informed care, and have worked extensively with diverse populations, including people living with disability and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. I am passionate about delivering compassionate, culturally responsive, and client-centred care that empowers individuals to achieve
meaningful and lasting change.
