Hello & welcome! I am a clinical psychologist based in Ladhope Chambers, Spring Hill, Brisbane. I provide a warm, safe, & non-judgmental space for individuals of all cultural backgrounds, gender identities, & sexual orientations. My therapeutic approach combines psychodynamic & attachment theories.

I am passionate about helping people navigate & overcome life's challenges, particularly those involving trauma. I have a strong commitment to supporting the LGBTQIA+ community, having published research on sexual minority stress, identity integration, internalised sexual prejudice, stigma, and post-sex dysphoria.

As a former member of the defence force, I am dedicated to assisting both current and ex-serving military personnel with military-related trauma, relationship issues, and the transition to civilian life.

My qualifications include having completed a Master of Clinical Psychology with a subsequent Clinical Psychology endorsement.
