Counselling & Family Therapy
In my private practice located on the Gold Coast, I work with a diverse range of clients, including adolescents, adults, couples, and families. My commitment is to provide quality, collaborative care, where I invest the time to fully appreciate each client's unique circumstances. Together with my clients, we establish clear therapy goals, employ tailored evidence-based treatments, and consistently monitor and assess progress toward achieving these goals.
I assist individuals and families in coping with various challenges, including:
-
Anxiety and Stress
-
Depression
-
Trauma
-
Family and Relationship Difficulties
-
Family Transitions (e.g., separation and stepfamilies)
-
Parenting
-
Adolescent Challenges (e.g., peer issues and identity)
-
Grief and Loss
-
Behavioral Difficulties
-
Low Self-esteem
