I’m a psychologist based in Thornbury, Melbourne and online.

Sometimes things may seem fine from the outside, whist underneath you may feel stuck in repeating patterns, overwhelmed by emotion, or are relying on things like alcohol, substances or pornography to cope. These habits might bring momentary relief, but often leave you feeling ashamed disconnected and frustrated with yourself. You can be capable, keep showing up and manage what's expected of you, while still feeling stuck or alone with things you're finding difficult to change.

I am particularly passionate about working with men, especially around trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression and long-standing emotional habits that impact relationships, confidence and wellbeing. I also love working with younger adults (18-25), helping them navigate the change and challenges this life stage can bring - friends, relationships, career, identity and everything in between.

My style is practical and down to earth and with a side of humour to help you feel at ease. You’ll find the space is supportive, collaborative but also honest. I’m known for being able to gently challenge you when it’s helpful.

I would be a good fit if you’re seeking support for longer-term issues, past trauma/experiences and building greater self-understanding. I believe meaningful change happens slowly, through consistent and thoughtful work.

Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy exercise, cooking and making sourdough bread (which I take embarrassingly seriously).
