Clinical Psychologist
BA, GradDipPsych., MPsych (Clin)
Since starting my career in psychology, I've had the privilege to provide individualised care using evidence-based treatment modalities to suit the unique characteristics, values and life stories of many.
My own story began in the mid 80s in a little humble town with big oil industry aspirations in the culturally and biodiversed island of Borneo. Some time in the early 2000s, armed with a singular work ethic and nothing but the aspirations of a family's history of global migration, it is Australia that I chose to call my second home.
In the decade working in both public mental health and private practice settings, I have come to approach therapy in a relaxed manner, punctuated with occasional humour, and big on knowledge topped with encouragement. I strongly believe that understanding human thoughts, emotions and behaviours is a study which requires both a scientific and compassionate mind.
Other than being a mental health enthusiast and psychology buff, you may find me on a foodie hunt or cooking up a storm in the kitchen. I am also a fan of Survivor and all-things artistic gymnastics, novels, and anything music.
