Welcome to Grow Through Therapy, a dedicated private practice located in Ascot, Brisbane/Meanjin. We offer personalised therapy services for individuals, focusing on clients aged 16+. Our approach is deeply rooted in evidence-based practices, combined with a compassionate, person-centred approach.
At Grow Through Therapy, we believe that every person’s journey is unique. That’s why we prioritise getting to know you as an individual, understanding your specific needs and goals. Our aim is to provide tailored support that fosters growth and healing, rather than simply addressing symptoms or diagnoses.
Creating a safe and supportive environment is at the heart of what we do. We take the time to listen and understand you, ensuring that your therapy experience is as enriching and empowering as possible.
If you’re seeking a space where your personal journey is valued and supported, we’re here to help you grow through therapy.
As a psychologist, I believe in the power of authenticity and empathy. The therapy process is a profound and courageous journey, and my role is to meet you with genuine care and understanding. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions, and where we can work together to uncover and pursue the path that’s right for you.
While I am trained as a psychologist, I am also human, with my own vulnerabilities and imperfections. I am not immune to life's challenges and realities. This shared humanity allows me to approach each client with compassion and understanding. By modelling that we are all doing our best with what we have, I strive to create a non-judgmental environment where you can feel truly supported.
My aim is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your difficulties openly and without fear. Together, we can work towards understanding and growth, respecting your unique journey every step of the way.
I have worked across both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings and private practice. I now work primarily with clients seeking support for eating disorders, low self-esteem, trauma, and perinatal concerns.
