Experience
I am a registered clinical psychologist providing evidence-based psychological care to adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
My approach is thoughtful, practical, and collaborative. I place strong emphasis on understanding what is maintaining distress and working together to develop strategies that are realistic, meaningful, and aligned with your values and circumstances.
I work extensively with anxiety and low mood, as well as adjustment to major
life stressors. Alongside this, I have specialist experience in psycho-oncology, supporting people and families as they navigate the psychological impact of cancer across diagnosis, treatment, survivorship, and advanced illness.
All appointments are currently offered via secure telehealth.
Psycho-oncology focus
I have a longstanding commitment to psycho-oncology and the psychological care of people affected by cancer. My experience spans public and private oncology settings across Australia and New Zealand.
Cancer can disrupt every aspect of life, including identity, relationships, work, and sense of safety in the body. Psychological support in this context is not about positive thinking. It is about helping people make sense of what they are facing, manage uncertainty, and find steadier ways of coping in the midst of very real challenges.
My Journey
I completed my clinical psychology training in New Zealand and relocated to Sydney in 2015. In 2021, my family and I moved to the Southern Highlands, which we now call home.
While I am based in regional New South Wales, my clinical work is delivered via telehealth, allowing me to support people across Australia.
