About

I have been providing counselling and therapy services with an eclectic clientele since 2008. While my specialisations include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, harm reduction, substance abuse and mental health, I adopt an integrated framework encompassed by a person-centred approach. My private practice, Dreaming Tree Counselling, now offers me the opportunity to continue to provide compassionate and effective counselling and therapy services in the Brisbane area.
