Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I have worked in the mental health space for over 6 years. I first began working in the mental health space as a sexual assault victim advocate prior to my completion of my master’s degree in counselling in 2020 which I attained from Monash University in Melbourne. While at Monash, I completed my internship at a high school and an EAP agency.
Since obtaining my master’s degree and a follow-on graduate certificate in health and human services from the University of Melbourne, I worked in a variety of fields such as in veteran services as a group therapy facilitator, community telehealth, academic advising, counselling in a carceral setting as well as providing clinical supervision to counselling graduate students.
I have provided mental health counselling to a wide range of populations including military veterans, sex workers, LGBTQIA+ folks, educators, international students and immigrants, the elderly, unhoused individuals, Indigenous Australians, and small business owners
Among my clinical work, I also obtained a clinical certificate in group therapy and multicultural counselling from Shippensburg University in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, USA.
The foundation of my education and approach to therapy are rooted in Rogerian person-centered strategies. I have training in ACT, Schema Therapy, CBT and REBT. I also recognize the importance of existential, ontological and spiritually informed approaches to holistic wellbeing.
I believe social justice advocacy and cultural competency are foundational to counselling and hold these values as integral to my practice.

Many people ask whether online therapy can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or adapting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable to traditional in-person sessions for helping people manage these issues.
A key benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that fits their life, whether by video call, phone session, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Each therapist is a licensed professional, and if someone feels a different fit is needed they can switch therapists at any time. The combination of convenience and professional training makes online therapy a viable option for many people seeking support.
