Education
My therapeutic approach is built on rigorous academic training, professional accreditation, and a deep commitment to evidence-based practice. As a clinician who values both scientific rigor and holistic wisdom, I’ve invested in comprehensive education across psychotherapy, somatic therapies, and mindfulness-based interventions to serve you with the highest standards of care.
Holding a Master of Counselling from Monash University and dual registration with Australia’s leading professional bodies (ACA and PACFA), I bring both academic excellence and clinically proven methods to our work. But beyond certificates, what truly defines my practice is how I integrate this knowledge with lived experience - creating therapy that’s as professionally sound as it is humanly authentic.
​
Below you’ll find details of my formal qualifications, specialized trainings, and the therapeutic frameworks that inform my work. These tools matter because you matter - and you deserve a therapist whose expertise matches the complexity of your journey.
