About Me

I offer a supportive space for individuals experiencing stress, burnout, or trauma, particularly from workplace challenges. We can explore effective strategies and build resilience together. Using techniques like EMDR, I help you process difficult experiences, finding clear pathways to recovery. My aim is to equip you with practical tools for lasting well-being. This can be through individual therapy or my dedicated burnout prevention clinic.

Approach

Sessions blend focused processing with practical skill-building, shaped around your work and life demands so therapy feels purposeful and efficient. I see people in Melbourne and by secure online sessions in English, with flexible timing to suit busy schedules and occasional check-ins between meetings. In-session we slow to notice bodily cues, target stuck memories, and rehearse simple routines that shift physiological arousal and decision-making over time. This way of working often helps adults facing burnout, trauma or major transitions who want tangible relief and clearer next steps.
