Originally from Cairns, North Queensland, during the past decade I have worked across a number of settings including public health, private practice and inpatient treatment. Most recently, I lived and worked at a primary inpatient addiction treatment centre in Chiang Mai, northern Thailand for two years, providing psychological services to clients from around the world with complex and developmental trauma, PTSD, addictions, depression and anxiety, complex grief and loss, personality disorders, and food, body and sleep disorders. I am trained and experienced in a range of other therapeutic modalities, including: MI (Motivational Interviewing) DBT (Dialectical Behavioural Therapy) CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) IFS (Internal Family Systems therapy) Mindfulness and Meditation practices. I value and practice a holistic and systematic approach to health and wellbeing through a combination of mind, body and soul work, and believe in the importance of nutrition as medicine. I consumes a plant-based diet and have also completed several nutrition and detoxification courses in Thailand. I am an avid yoga student with training in meditation and mindfulness techniques and have completed a number of silent meditation retreats in Australia and Thailand. I have completed numerous workshops, seminars and retreats with Buddhist Monks and meditation experts, including S. N. Goenka, Bruno Cayoun, Alan Wallace, Matthieu Ricard and Tenzin Palmo and actively study their philosophies and practices.  I approach my work with a ‘practice what you preach’ mentality. I have been on a personal health and wellbeing journey for 12 years, engaging in a range of different therapies, modalities and healing techniques. I believe having an open mind is important when healing trans-generational and family trauma patterns and there is no ‘one size fits all’.
