Welcome to my practise. This is a counselling space in which all members of the LGBTQIA+ community, people of colour and other marginalised identities find safety and belonging. I infuse theories from both Social Work and Psychology to develop the most suitable treatment plans and therapeutic interventions for clients. 

 

I journey with my clients in navigating early childhood trauma, black tax, work-related stress, relationship troubles, grief & bereavement, depression and anxiety, and other psycho-social conditions.

My Experience

A Seven-Year Long Journey...

Over the past 7 years I have gained experience in clinical settings, public health research, education and most recently in corporate social investment. 

From working in acute care and forensic psychiatry, I developed key competencies in Psychosocial assessment, treatment planning, therapeutic and family intervention, and evaluating treatment outcomes. Through my private practise these skills have been refined and perfected. 

I am also a published researcher and mental health advocate whose work has received recognition globally. 

Portrait with Hands Clasped
Environmental predictability, consistency and reliability are key tenants in addressing the psychic chaos caused by trauma and abuse.
