Medicare Psychologist Provider

Telehealth available

I am a Registered Psychologist with experience across private practice, hospital, and community mental health settings. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, neurodivergence, mood disorders, burnout, and life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based frameworks such as CBT, ACT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. Originally trained in Germany (practicing here since 2021), I bring a culturally informed and systemic perspective shaped by my work in a psychosomatic ward, where chronic pain, trauma, and mind�body patterns were central. I now contribute to the Empower Pain Program at Figtree Private Hospital. I am SIRA-approved and accept WorkCover, CTP, and DVA referrals. I also have experience supporting first responders- particularly police officers- presenting with PTSD, cumulative trauma, and operational stress.
