I am a highly skilled psychotherapist specialising in the treatment of eating disorders, alcoholism, addictions, overwhelming anxiety and ADHD. These conditions are very often linked to childhood trauma, have long-term consequences and create unwanted life problems for many people.
I’m passionate about working with people looking for a second chance at life, and that may just be you.
My clients have generally spent a long time struggling with an issue such as their weight, their alcohol consumption or their drug use. Usually, they’ve been trying hard to control it, but haven’t seemed to succeed for long. This may be confusing or frustrating, especially if they cope well in other areas of their lives.
I understand that challenge and know that the solution starts with asking for help.
Based in Sydney, I’m a psychotherapist who specialises in helping people deal with lifestyle problems they just can’t seem to shift. This may be an ongoing struggle with weight that is affecting self-esteem. Or a problem with drinking too much that is impacting work and relationships. Perhaps you’re still partying, long after your friends have settled down, and your social life is starting to revolve around dealers, drugs and cravings.
Whatever you think is your problem, be it food, alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling, shopping or any other behaviour that is causing you unwanted consequences, I can help.
I understand that living this way can feel like going round and round in circles. Best intentions fall by the wayside; problems mount up; shame, regret and remorse become oh-so-familiar.
I will not judge you. I will help you align with your goals and values to live the life you really want.
Everyone deserves a second chance to get things right.
I am a highly experienced therapist, trained in a wide range of evidence-based therapeutic modalities. My approach is trauma-focused, and I integrate knowledge and experience to create a unique, holistic, mind-body-spirit approach for each client, designed to effect profound, positive change.
I believe in creating a safe, confidential relationship in which my clients can unpack their problems and find their solutions. We will even have a few laughs along the way.
So, if you’re sick of going round in circles and you’re ready for something better, I’d love to hear from you. Please contact me for an appointment.
Yes, you can recover from any addiction and I can help you to navigate a path away from your difficulties.
Each session we spend together will centre around your individual needs and concerns, as you explore the possibilities of living differently. I believe in bringing patience, respect, warmth and insight to my work with you; and to providing you with the safety and support you need to start living your life with a greater sense of ease and well-being.
I know that asking for help can be hard, but recovery is not a journey travelled alone. If you are ready for change, please contact me to make an appointment.
I am a Level 4 registered member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and adhere to the ethical guidelines of the ACA. I continue to expand my expertise through regular professional development training and I work with a supervisor to ensure the highest standards of practice for you.
