As a Deaf Therapist, I use “behavioural forms” of therapy which are usually short-term and solution focused and a “psychodynamic approach”, a more long term therapy focusing on my client’s background-history, current life experiences, challenges, strengths, and goals. This approach helps my clients build both awareness and confidence so they can find new and more helpful ways of responding to others and challenging situations. I specialise in Trauma with extensive experience spanning across Australia and Germany. Immensely passionate about advocacy for Deaf Mental Health awareness and access. Collaborating on research to ensure knowledge is shared to make Deaf Mental Health a priority in Australia.

Deaf Eco Summit - Sydney

Two powerful days of connection, inspiration, and collaboration with Deaf business owners from Australia and overseas.
This Summit was more than just presentations — it was about building a stronger Deaf ecosystem where Deaf-led businesses, services, and professionals can thrive together.

The energy in the room was incredible — By Deaf, for Deaf.

Last night I attended the University of Southern Queensland’s Thought Leadership Series: How to Think Differently About Mental Health.

As a Deaf Clinical Counsellor, I had the opportunity to ask questions about research into culturally and linguistically appropriate screenings and assessments for the Deaf community.
This is essential to reduce misdiagnosis and prevent pathologising Deaf people in mental health settings.

Grateful to be part of these important conversations and to see mental health professionals exploring new perspectives.

Proud to have presented at the Neurodiversity Affirming Therapy Conference in Melbourne, Australia, this week — the premiere conference hosted by LOAPAC (League of Autistic Psychologists and Affirming Colleagues).

It was an honour to contribute to such a vital and affirming space, sharing my insights in Auslan as part of a growing movement toward inclusive, neurodiversity-affirming mental health care.

Grateful to be among so many dedicated professionals leading change in this field.
