I have a diverse range of interests and love working with adults (young, middle aged and older adults). I enjoy working with people who are experiencing difficulties as a result of life changes (such as relationship changes, career changes, retirement, moving from other areas or countries), who are considering life changes, and/or who are struggling with existential issues (including life, death, identity, meaning and purpose issues).

 

I also have a special interest in working with people affected by Cancer, Diabetes (including Type 1 Diabetes), and other health events and illnesses. 

 

In addition to these areas above, I work with people with a range of experiences. Some of the reasons people come to see me include:

  • Low mood

  • Low self-esteem and confidence

  • Grief, loss and bereavement

  • Depression 

  • Bipolar Disorder (Type 1)

  • Worry

  • General anxiety 

  • Social anxiety

  • Panic attacks

  • Phobias

  • Adjustment difficulties

  • Health and/or illness-related difficulties, including experience of cancer (from pre-diagnosis onwards).

  • Stress

  • Sleep difficulties

  • Addictions (alcohol, other drugs, pornography, gambling etc)

  • Relationship difficulties (I do not see couples together but see many people individually who are experiencing distress in their relationships)

  • Family planning and/or decision-making difficulties and/or grief and loss around this area (including people who are childless by choice)

  • Autism (level 1 functioning)

  • Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

  • Schizophrenia and other disorders which involve psychoses or delusions

I work under a range of funding models. Please see here for information about fees and rebates.

please be aware, I don't currently work with:

  • Children

  • Families

  • Couples (I see individuals about relationship difficulties, but do not offer couples' counselling)

  • People with intellectual disabilities

  • People with non-verbal communication disabilities or disorders

  • People with previously diagnosed personality disorders or Bipolar Disorder Type 2

  • People in workcover claims processes or who are likely to become so involved

  • People involved in current, or likely future, legal disputes, including family or criminal matters
