Hi, I’m Kate,

I have been a registered psychologist since 2015 and have been working with a wide variety of clients for over a decade.

My approach is client-focused, holistic and inclusive, holding a safe space for people to cultivate clarity, healing, and growth within their lives.

I believe that you have all the answers you need, YOU are your best expert. Sometimes we just need someone to hold the space for us while we gain the clarity we are seeking. Sometimes we need someone to validate and support our healing process. Sometimes we need someone on our team to help us grow.

I love supporting people in developing self-awareness, exploring unhelpful life patterns and clarifying values at all stages of their lives. With the right support in place, I believe that all experiences can add to the rich tapestry of our lives.

I am warm and empathetic, and I also have a sense of humor. I believe we can laugh and bring joy to the healing process. Where there has been darkness, we can bring some light.

I am passionate about working with individuals who are facing challenges with:

• addictions

• trauma and PTSD

• relationship issues

Other areas of expertise and interest include:

• general psychology/counselling

• parenting/family of origin issues

• anxiety

• panic attacks and disorders

• depression

• stress

• anger management

• work-related/burnout issues

• critical incident stress debriefing

• self-esteem/self-development

• body image issues/disordered eating

• post-natal depression/anxiety

• dual diagnosis

• identity issues

• self-harm

• sexuality

• life transition and adjustment issues

I utilise a range of evidence-based psychological interventions and tailor my approach to suit each individual’s circumstances. I work through a trauma-informed lens and explore the relationship between mental health concerns, life events, and what goes on within the depth of our internal world. We can work together to create a rich, meaningful life.

I warmly welcome ALL people, irrespective of gender, race, body size, shape, ability, religion, socioeconomic status or lived experience.
