“Know all the theories.
Master all the techniques.
But as you touch a human soul
be just another human soul.”
- Carl Jung
I am a registered psychologist practicing in Brisbane. I offer online appointments.
My therapeutic style is integrative and flexible, adopting a client-centred approach and drawing largely from a relational psychodynamic framework.
I work to provide a warm, authentic and compassionate therapeutic experience where, through attentive presence, deep listening and curiosity, you can develop and grow in ways that support the change you want in your life.
In building a genuine and collaborative relationship, where empathy and humour are intricately woven, there is opportunity to share your fears and joys in a safe and supportive environment.
You may have noticed increased challenges in your life or become stuck. You might find it difficult to articulate what is on your mind. By meeting you where you are at, there is space to explore your feelings to invite clarity and a chance to know yourself with new understanding.

“To me, art almost always speaks more forcefully when it appears in an imperfect, accidental and fragmentary way, somehow just signaling its presence….I prefer the Chopin that reaches me in the street from an open window to the Chopin served in great style from the concert stage.”
- Witold Combrowicz
Services
I offer individual psychotherapy for adults (18 years +) under a fee for service structure. My current fee is $220 per session (50-min in length).
A referral is not required to access psychology services however, if you do obtain a Mental Health Care Plan from a GP you can receive a Medicare rebate of $96.65 per session for 10 sessions per calendar year.
Support with psychology fees can occur through some private health insurers. It is helpful to contact your private health provider to determine what is available to you.
Presently, I do not carry out services under Workcover, DVA or NDIS and am not able to provide court/legal reports or assessments.
“Before every session, I take a moment to remember my humanity. There is no experience that this person has that I cannot share with them, no fear that I cannot understand, no suffering that I cannot care about, because I too am human. No matter how deep their wound, they do not need to be ashamed in front of me. I too am vulnerable.”
- Carl Rogers
Location
I am located in New Farm, Brisbane.
