I am passionate about providing the best service I can to locals. I understand what it’s like to live semi-remotely and have a vested interest in seeing the Cairns community prosper. I work with people in all stages of life who are dealing with issues like: Trauma, including complex trauma Anxiety Depression Family & relationship difficulties Bullying PTSD Grief & loss And more I draw from three key areas of psychotherapy in the private and one-on-one sessions. The group workshops can be tweaked to suit you or present a universal approach to coping with adversity, such as an anxiety or bullying. I am an agent for several EAPs and provide a range of services for NDIS participants. I also offer mindfulness and meditation, which can assist with overcoming stressful situations.
