Located in Newport, serving Brisbane's northern peninsula, currently offering Online Counselling - with face-2-face counselling available from September 2025.

My clinical experience with Teens and Young Adults includes:

• Crisis intervention and safety planning for self-harm, suicidal ideation, and high-risk situations
• Mental health support for depression, anxiety, CPTSD, and trauma recovery
• Eating disorder support working with families navigating complex food and body image struggles
• Harm-reduction approaches with substance use and other risk-taking behaviors
• Grief and loss counselling helping families process difficult transitions and losses
• Neurodivergent support for ADHD, autism, and learning differences
• Family systems work addressing how individual struggles impact the whole family dynamic

I have experience working both within high-school settings and in community counselling. My approach focuses on creating safe spaces for authentic connection and understanding, recognizing that young people often flourish through relationship and support rather than traditional problem-focused interventions.

As a mother of three children (aged 9-15), I understand the daily realities and deep concerns that come with parenting in today's world.
