I am a Psychologist & trained Psychotherapist located in Potts Point & via telehealth, I recently closed my CBD practice of 13 years to consolidate. Clients seek my support at different times,at different frequencies; we pick up where we left off; I hold your story. I find clients want to manage & understand anxiety, process key relationships; work, family & personal, along with the issues they bring.

We talk work/work dynamics; how to navigate & optimise. Find clarity regarding aspects of self & key relationships. My style is warm but direct & practical. I believe awareness & action leads to change; you can develop a new awareness of what you do & how you think. Working at your pace, which may be solution focussed or taking a longer relational path, outcomes can be achieved. I have previous commercial work experience in HR/Recruitment & Business (Sydney/London); and from working in EAP over the last 5 years, here in Australia. I understand work pressures & work relationships.
