Counselling
I see people face-to-face in Castlemaine, Victoria, or via telehealth for people living in remote or regional areas, or required to isolate for health reasons.
One on One
I offer individual counselling for people with a range of issues including diagnosable mental health problems, relationship problems, parenting issues, adjustment disorders, identity issues, LGBTI issues, stress-related problems, existential issues, separation, climate change grief and eco-anxiety.
I work with people to help them to listen to their needs, make room for their feelings, free themselves from self-defeating thoughts and urges, act in line with their values, and do things that will help them to have a rich and full life within the earth’s natural limits.
I have a preference to use ACT, CBT and Gottman Therapy with clients.

Couples Counselling
I have been working with couples since the mid 1990’s when I was working at Relationships Australia (Kew). I do couples therapy, mediation and conflict resolution, and have a preference for using Gottman Therapy with clients. I help couples develop deeper friendship and intimacy, manage conflict constructively, and create shared meaning.
Pricing
I see people privately as well as supported by a range of health insurance schemes including medicare, TAC, WorkCover, DVA, VRAS, and private health insurance. Fees are guided by the Australian Psychological Society.
