A Bit About Me

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over a decade of experience supporting people of all ages to improve their quality of life. I value honesty, compassion, sustainability and community. My clients describe my therapeutic style as relaxed, genuine, often humorous and deeply caring. I am a clinically endorsed psychologist with the Australian Health Practitioner Registration Agency, Board Approved Supervisor, and visiting lecturer in the field of child psychology.

I am an internationally recognised teacher trainer of the Mindful Self-Compassion program for teens and presenter on this topic. I am trained in EMDR Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction and a range of Cognitive and Behavioural approaches.

​

Throughout my career, I have worked in acute child, adolescent and family settings, education setting as well as in private practice, supporting a diverse range of clients. I have led teams of mental health and counselling practitioners and continue to train and supervise psychology trainees, self-compassion trainees and early career therapists, with a particular passion for helping them achieve sustainable work-life balance. I am the Director and Principal Clinical Psychologist of Flow Psychology & Therapeutic Services and am delighted to bring my wealth of knowledge and experience, along with a passion for self-compassion to Embrace.

Outside of work, I am a foster carer and avid advocate and supporter of other carers and kiddos in care. I love to bake, I love to sing, I love yoga and I love a bottomless cup of tea with friends.
