Therapeutic Approach
My practice is grounded in depth-oriented, evidence-based psychological therapy, informed by trauma-aware and nervous system–focused principles. I aim to support sustainable emotional growth and meaningful, lasting change.
I specialise in working with adults navigating the impacts of trauma and chronic stress. With a focus on trauma recovery, emotional regulation, and nervous system integration, I draw on evidence-based approaches that support both mind and body. These include somatic therapies, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), parts-based work, neuro-affirming coaching, and practical grounding techniques.
I am committed to providing an inclusive and affirming space for the communities I support:
Neurodiversity affirming
Queer/LGBTQIA+ affirming
SW allied
IVDU allied
Professional Background
I have worked in community-based trauma and alcohol and other drug (AOD) services since 2014. My experience includes supporting individuals living with complex trauma, substance use concerns, ADHD, family violence, and co-occurring mental health challenges.
