Couples Therapy

Looking for help with some relationship difficulties?

Experience a safe, non-judgemental space for you and your partner so that you both can build safety and connection in your relationship, explore what is really going on in your interactions and work on new ways of relating.

Partners can get stuck in patterns of relating without even knowing it so I'll work with you both on making sense of these patterns and finding new ways in session in which you both can safely become more emotionally connected.

We'll look together at areas including: the patterns you get stuck in, your attachment experiences that contribute to the way you see yourself and the world around you, and the needs that lie underneath your emotions and actions.

"..we all have very deep needs for safe connection and emotional contact, and that when we don't get those needs, we get stuck in very negative interactional patterns; the dance music gets very complicated.."

Family Therapy

Is your family having difficulty in communicating or working through conflict?

Living in a family can be tough. Most, if not all, families have conflict of some kind, and in the heat of the moment it can feel like things will never change. I will work together with you as a family to help slow things down, and provide a secure, neutral space for issues to be heard and for deeper connection be created. Together, we will work on areas such as roles and dynamics in the family, how members can get stuck in ways of relating, understanding behaviour in terms of attachment needs and fears, and how to improve attunement and communication between you and your children.

Do you provide rebates?

I am registered as a counsellor with BUPA, HCF, Medibank and AHM and Australian Regional Health Group (ARHG). If you have the appropriate policy cover with these health insurance providers, you may be able to claim a rebate so please do check with your health insurance provider.

I currently do not provide for Medicare rebates. If you require it, please ask your GP about getting a Mental Health Care Plan and they can provide referrals.

How many sessions will I need?

Everyone who seeks counselling has their own unique personality, history and challenges that they are facing. It is therefore difficult to predict what your requirements might be. Some people just want short-term support to help them through a particular circumstance, while others find long-term support helpful. What's important is to get the right kind of support for you.

I am available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays between the hours of 10am and 8pm. Please do get in touch about my current availability and if you need a session outside of these times.

Where are you located?

I am based at The Ezra Centre in Macquarie Park. The centre is located on the BaptistCare grounds and has parking available right in front of the centre. It is also walking distance from Macquarie Centre, Macquarie University and the Macquarie University Metro Station.
