BSc (Hons), MPsych (Clinical), MAPS

I am a clinical psychologist with experience working with clients with a variety of presenting concerns. My focus is on creating a safe and collaborative space whereby I use evidence-based therapies to help my clients work towards their specific treatment goals. The interventions I use are predominantly Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) based including aspects of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT).

I work with adolescents (15+) and adults seeking assistance for:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Stress management
• Adjustment and transitions
• Eating disorders
• Body image concerns
• Low self-esteem
• Developing healthy relationships with food
• Perfectionism
• Grief and loss
• Communication and assertiveness skills
• Emotional adjustment to cancer diagnosis and treatment

In addition to my experience in private practice, I have previously worked in the Monash Health eating disorders team in both the inpatient and day patient programs. I have also worked as a senior clinical psychologist for Eastern Health working with patients of the cancer service.
