Psychologist
in Thornbury & Brunswick
About
I’m a psychologist working with adults in Melbourne’s inner north.
I help clients to move through difficult times, reconnect with themselves, and break patterns that have been holding them back.
I have a particular interest in individuals with adult ADHD diagnoses, and am an associate member of the Australasian ADHD Professional Association (AADPA). Discovering neurodivergence as an adult can be complex process of adjustment and reevaluation.
I hold a Masters of Clinical Psychology from the University of Melbourne, and have completed additional training in psychotherapy. I worked for over 10 years in large organisations so have solid understanding of life beyond the therapy room.
Approach
My style is warm and curious. I consider it a great privilege to do this work and I appreciate the opportunity to learn about each new client.
My practice is grounded in humanistic psychotherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). I draw on a range of additional contemporary therapeutic approaches, particularly schema and attachment therapies. I also have specific training in treating post-traumatic stress disorder. Overall, however, I prioritise the therapeutic alliance over specific modalities.
Fees
Sessions are $220 per session and last for 50 minutes. Clients with a Mental Health Treatment Plan from their GP receive a rebate that reduces the cost to $118.45 per session (for up to 10 sessions per calendar year).
A limited number of reduced-fee places are available for those in constrained financial circumstances.
Location
I see clients in two locations in the inner north, and one location in the south.
