Wherever you are on your journey, I appreciate your bravery in seeking support.

Who am I ?

I am a somatic oriented trauma therapist in Fairfield, Preston, and Melbourne's northern suburbs, working with adults experiencing overwhelm, chronic pain, anxiety, IBS, and the lasting effects of trauma. Through body-based therapy and creative modalities, I help you reconnect with yourself and un-clench from difficult experiences—not through talking, but through gentle, embodied practices that address how trauma lives in your body.

In our sessions, we go beyond just talking. We explore how your experiences affect your body and what needs to be healed and integrated.

Reframing Your Experience

I view anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and feelings of shame not as disorders but as ways your body and mind have learned to cope with difficult times.

Practice Focus

1. Listening to the Body
We learn to pay attention to your feelings and sensations instead of ignoring them. This helps address fatigue, tension, and restlessness.

2. Moving Beyond "Survival Mode"
We work on releasing feelings of shame, guilt, and anxiety stored in the body by using somatic practices to help you feel more present and stable.

3. Gentle Emotional Support
We approach your heavy emotions with care, moving at a pace that feels right for you as we create a supportive connection.

4. Creative Integration
Through creative, embodied and expressive practices, we connect your mind, emotions, and spirit, helping you move from feeling stuck to flowing within yourself and in your relationships.

As Rachel Naomi Remen says, we all carry both fear and courage. Healing is about embracing the full truth of who you are, not just getting rid of the "bad" parts.

I bring more than a decade of specialist experience and qualification in the areas of complex trauma. Here are the details for your reference. 

I serve clients in: Fairfield, Preston, Thornbury, Northcote, Brunswick, and across Melbourne's northern suburbs. Virtual sessions available throughout Victoria.

Thank you for your time.
