As a qualified counsellor registered at Level 2 with the Australian Counselling Association, I provide children and families with a calm, supportive environment in which their perspectives are respected and valued. Through thoughtful dialogue, I help individuals develop clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of identity. I also offer parents and carers specialised guidance on family dynamics and their child’s individual journey, providing an inclusive setting in which to explore family changes and their impact on children.

As a neuro-affirming counsellor in the Northern Territory, I support individuals and families with sensitivity and respect for their unique circumstances. I bring more than 20 years of experience across special education, behaviour therapy, disability advocacy, community services, and culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities, together with nine years in private counselling practice. Having collaborated with multidisciplinary teams across Australia, I use an empathetic and collaborative approach to help individuals and families build confidence, security, and wellbeing.

I have demonstrated experience supporting people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and co-occurring conditions, with particular expertise in facilitating inclusive transitions to education and employment in partnership with schools across the ACT and New South Wales. I have also worked closely with refugee and migrant families, implementing communication tools and strategies that strengthen engagement and community connections. Building on my counselling qualifications, I am completing a Graduate Certificate in Autism Studies at Griffith University, with the intention of progressing to the Master of Autism Studies.
