Individual Therapy

I tailor therapy to each individuals needs, drawing on evidence-based approaches such as:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

• Dialectical-Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

• Schema Therapy

• Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)

People come to therapy for many different reasons. Some of the areas I regularly support clients with include:

• Anxiety, panic, or chronic worry

• Depression and low mood

• Trauma and post-traumatic stress

• Substance use and addictive behaviours

• Sleep and insomnia

• Stress and adjustment

• Anger and emotion regulation

Sessions are held in a private, comfortable setting, and typically run for 50 minutes. In our first session, we'll talk about what brings you to therapy and what you’re hoping for. There’s no pressure to have it all figured out — we’ll go at a pace that feels right for you. At the end of the session I will provide a summary of my impression and recommend a treatment approach.

I offer in-person sessions in Brisbane as well as telehealth appointments via secure video or phone.
