my experience

I have been specialising in childhood and developmental trauma, adult and child trauma recovery, women and children’s health, attachment, parenting, childhood behavioural disorders, child and adolescent mental health, and family therapy. 

I am passionate about working in a holistic and systemic capacity, incorporating important people, places and activities into recovery models. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities including art therapy, yoga, therapeutic play, family and relational therapy,  body psychotherapy and meditation/breathing techniques. Outside of my professional life I have a regular practice of yoga, meditation, and therapy. 

I am in my last year of Body Psycotherapy studies (currently starting to see clients under this modality) and graduated with my Bachelor's in Occupational Therapy in 2017. Prior to moving into private practice I volunteered and lived in Fiji at an early intervention centre, worked with children and young people who were in Out of Home Care and under the Child Safety System, have been an inhouse therapist for women and children in a domestic violence shelter, a mental health clinician within refugee-resettlement, child, family and adult therapist in NDIS private practice, and a Senior Mental Health Clinician in Child and Youth Mental Health Services (CAMHS) in regional cities and in remote communities.
