My person centered, strengths based & trauma informed practice helps me to create individual counselling plans that can support people through their depression. I have completed a Graduate Diploma in Youth Mental Health which has given me a great knowledge in both mental health & how to identify & therapeutically treat mental conditions in both adult clients & young people.
Depression can isolate us from others and from ourselves. The antidote is connection and understanding which is where psychotherapy/psychoanalysis can help.
Hello and welcome! I am a registered Arts Therapist and counselor based in Sydney. I provide art therapy and counselling to those experiencing depression. Through my practice, I make an intentional commitment to support individuals in their health and wellbeing journey. My mission is to enrich and empower the lives of others through creativity and connection. My passion for expressive creative arts has inspired me to further explore how art can be used as a tool for healing, and the ways it can be used in mental health recovery as a psychotherapeutic modality.
Depression is multifaceted and can include feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a disinterest in activities once enjoyed. It can manifest physically through changes in appetite, sleep disturbances, and fatigue, impacting daily functioning and relationships.
I offer a non-judgemental space to navigate difficult emotions and situations and bring empathy and understanding to the complexities in life that depression can arise from. I acknowledge the uniqueness of each person's journey and provide compassionate, holistic care that empowers individuals to overcome obstacles and get to the root cause of their depression.

Depression has a deceptive timelessness where it can feel like things have always been this dark and will always be this dark. But that's not true. Nothing in nature remains static. Things are always changing. One season replaces another. It's important to remember this and to know, even in the darkest moments, that something different is possible.
