I’m the Co-director and Principal Clinical Psychologist at The Soulutions Centre. I’m fully registered and endorsed as a Clinical Psychologist with the Psychology Board of Australia. I’m also a member of the Australia Psychological Society (APS) and Australian Clinical Psychology Association (ACPA).

I’m passionate about helping you to find freedom from the mental and emotional struggles that are keeping you from reaching your fullest potential. I specialise in anxiety, depression, relationship and break up difficulties, existential concerns, stress management, law of attraction, achieving a mind, body and spirit balance and life coaching. My aim is to connect with you to find solutions that you can integrate at the soul level. I have personally experienced profound change in my life via a mind, body, spirit approach and believe this is where accelerated transformation takes place.

I draw on a holistic framework that considers the interplay between mind, body and spirit and consider therapy not as a ‘doctor-patient’ scenario but two colleagues tackling an opportunity together. I utilise a number of therapeutic approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness based therapy, and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) and EMDR.

In my spare time, I create art, immerse myself in nature, dance, cuddle with my spoodle Oliver and practice yoga. My new goal is to learn to surf as I’m an ocean junkie.
