I am a professional counsellor and registered member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA), and an Accredited Social Worker (BSW) with the Australian Association of Social Work (AASW).

My background includes providing counselling, disability and aged-care services within State and Local Government agencies, including the City of Fremantle and the Western Australian Department of Communities.

Although my expertise is in the disability sector, I love working with people from all walks of life. I regularly receive referrals from people of various faiths and cultural backgrounds, nationalities, genders and sexualities (my practice is LGBTQI friendly), and I am aware of the challenges faced by first and second generation migrants.

I have had many years of experience assisting people with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, controlling relationships, social isolation and communication difficulties.

I offer a holistic, non-judgemental, patient and supportive approach and I take confidentiality and privacy very seriously. My dual qualifications require that I am bound by two Code of Ethics: the Australian Counselling Association and the Australian Association of Social Work.
