I have a strong interest in the treatment of trauma including relational trauma, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex PTSD, sexual abuse and sexual assault. I have worked with adults who have experienced the effects of childhood trauma and with adults who have been in abusive relationships.
For 15 years I have worked in the public mental health sector with people experiencing serious mental illness (including young people with psychosis and in aged persons mental health) both in inpatient psychiatric units and in community mental health teams. In recent years, I have worked in the community sector in family violence (undertaking family therapy with mothers and children), in private practice with Employee Assistance Program including Victoria Police, and as a trauma counsellor at a Sexual Assault Centre (public sector).
I am an approachable person who can provide a safe, non-judgemental space to allow you to express your concerns and work with you to help you to heal. I have worked with issues including depression, anxiety, family dysfunction, carer issues, relationship issues, trauma, PTSD. As a first generation Australian I can relate to the complexities of migration and the intergenerational trauma that it can bring.
