    About Therapist

    This Hart psychologist has been registered as a psychologist for over 16 years. She has worked in multiple roles in psychology and management (including managing a counselling, youth and mental health teams).   One of her specialities is relationship counselling and she operates from the Melbourne Outer Eastern region. She enjoys working with a range of clients including children, adolescents and adults from various multicultural backgrounds. They often present with diverse psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, addiction, grief and loss, anger management problems, psychiatric issues, trauma, interpersonal conflicts and many more.

    Her ultimate therapeutic goal is to assist clients in unleashing their own potential and overcome and/or manage their psychological and other issues so that they can live a fulfilled and meaningful life. She provides a therapeutic environment that is conducive to healing and empowerment through her compassionate, warm, non-judgemental and caring approaches.

    She is particularly passionate about assisting couples and others dealing with interpersonal issues to develop skills to improve their own resilience, self-esteem whilst enhancing their communication styles and managing conflict.  She not only loves to assist clients in addressing their relationship problems but also in deepening and enriching their relationships to promote sustainable growth and happiness.

    She employs an integrative, holistic, flexible and client-centred approach in her psychology practice, using an array of scientifically proven techniques to assist clients.

    How many years counselling experience do you have?

    Over 16 years.

    What are three strengths you have as a Psychologist/Counsellor?

    I believe I have many strengths including empathy, instil hope in others and passionate about what I do.

    What is the most satisfying and fulfilling part of the work you do?

    I love to see the glimmer of hope in people’s eyes when they realise things can improve and the future suddenly looks brighter.

    What’s an example of a couple you have helped the most?

    Over the years, I have worked with many couples but the one that stands out the most is a couple who engaged in therapy for many years.  They had been together since they were young teenagers (16 years old) and the initial therapeutic intervention was alcohol related.  One partner was drinking excessively and this was creating friction in their marriage. Then they received counselling for intimacy issues, followed by parenting issues and then managing issues related to a child on the Autism spectrum.  This was a very rewarding experience because I was able to work holistically with this couple while integrating many of my psychology expertise to assist them in overcoming their many life challenges.  More importantly, it was particularly heartening to see this couple evolve into a stronger and emotionally connected not only couple but family unit.
