Are you a registered psychologist?

No — I am a trained and registered Psychotherapist & Counsellor.

Psychotherapists and psychologists share similarities but have different training and focus. Psychotherapists focus on relational, process-oriented work that helps you understand and work with your inner experiences, while psychologists often focus more on assessment and evidence-based interventions. Both roles are valuable, and the best fit depends on what you’re looking for.

 

Do you offer Medicare rebates?

No — psychotherapists are not currently eligible for Medicare rebates, even with a Mental Health Care Plan.

I do not offer private healthcare rebates

​​

Can I use NDIS funding?

 I can offer services to NDIS participants but I am not an NDIS registered provider.

• If you have a self-managed plan, you can claim back fees directly.

• If you have a plan manager, they can arrange payment for sessions.

 

Do you work with children, couples, or families?

No — I only see individual clients aged 21 and over.

 

How long are your sessions?

Initial consultations can take up to 1 hour 15 mins. Sessions after that are 1 hour

 

Do you offer online or in-person appointments?

Both are available. Availability may vary, so I will confirm openings when you contact me.

 

Do you have a waiting list?

I can usually offer an appointment within a week, but sometimes schedules don’t align. If needed, I can place you on a waiting list and contact you when a suitable time becomes available.

 

What are your working hours?

I dedicate Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to Psychotherapy and IFS Therapy.
Appointments run from 10am to 4pm (Melbourne time).

For Breathwork, Meditation, Sound Therapy, AIT, MAT, or Psychedelic Integration, I can offer appointments on other days — please check availability.

 

Can you see my partner or someone close to me?

If you are seeing me for Psychotherapy, I cannot see someone close to you at the same time, as this would be a conflict of interest.

Other modalities may allow alternative arrangements — please contact me to discuss what is possible.

 

Do you specialise in any areas?

My work is non-pathologising and process-oriented, supporting people to get to know themselves from the inside out.

Within this framework, I have experience with:

• Trauma, including complex trauma and PTSD

• Anxiety and depression

• Family and relationship difficulties

• Eating distress and body image concerns

• Guilt, shame, and self-compassion

• Living away from home or navigating life transitions

• Psychedelic integration

• Burnout and overwhelm

I continue ongoing professional development to deepen my skills while staying true to a relational, experiential, and reflective approach.

 

What other services do you offer outside of Psychotherapy?

Outside of IFS, Somatic IFS, and Psychotherapy, I offer:

• Breathwork – supports emotional regulation, nervous system balance, and relaxation

• Meditation – cultivates presence, focus, and mental clarity

• Sound Therapy – uses vibration and sound to calm the nervous system, release tension, and support emotional processing

• Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) – an energy psychology method that helps release stored trauma and limiting beliefs

• Metaphysical Anatomy Technique (MAT) – a mind-body approach that explores the connection between emotional experiences and physical health, supporting self-awareness and integration

If any of these are of interest to you, please let me know when you reach out so we can discuss which approaches might best support your goals.

 

Why do you offer things outside of Psychotherapy?

While IFS and Psychotherapy form the foundation of my work, some clients benefit from additional practices that support the nervous system, energy, and body. These sessions are complementary, helping you integrate insights from therapy into your body and daily life, and supporting overall wellbeing, resilience, and self-regulation.

Why do you charge GST?

GST is a 10% tax set by the Australian government and, once applied, it is collected and passed directly on to them. As a psychotherapist in private practice, I am required to register for and charge GST once my income reaches a certain threshold set by the Australian Taxation Office. This requirement applies to services like psychotherapy that are not classified as GST-exempt under current legislation.
