Professional psychologist in Newcastle providing individual therapy and counselling services across the Greater Hunter region. Supporting anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions through secure telehealth sessions.
I know that taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting. You might be wondering if your struggles are “serious enough” or if talking to someone will really help. Let me assure you - whatever you're facing, your feelings are valid and deserving of support.
In our sessions, you'll find a warm, non-judgmental environment where we can explore your challenges at your own pace.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety that keeps you awake at night, navigating difficult relationships, processing past experiences, or simply feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
There's no one-size-fits-all approach here - your therapy journey will be as unique as you are. We'll work together to find strategies that fit your life and values, creating meaningful change in your relationships, career, and overall wellbeing.
With flexible telehealth appointments available outside traditional 9-5 hours, including evenings, you can access professional support when it works for your schedule. From the comfort and privacy of your own home, Medicare rebates, NDIS funding, and private health coverage help make quality mental health care accessible.
Remember, seeking support isn't a sign of weakness - it's an act of courage and self-care.
When you're ready to take that step, I'm here to walk alongside you.
While this list covers common areas of focus, therapy can address any concern that's important to you. Every person's journey is unique.
