I stopped consulting face to face when it was unsafe to do so. The offices where I work are cleaned following every client with surfaces wiped. Sanitiser is provided for clients to use and the offices are cleaned with Covid-19 approved products. Client details are recorded in case of need for contact tracing.
Sexual abuse counselling
I have much experience and training in trauma therapy and I also have training in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing which is a Medicare Approved Treatment as a Focused Psychological Treatment and rebates are available.
Complex trauma
Complex trauma is much more difficult to recover from due to its occurring during childhood and its impact on development. However it is possible to recover with psychotherapy that is at the client's pace where retraumatisation is avoided. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Recovery can also be used to effectively treat painful memories. I have much experience treating complex trauma.

I have an Advanced Diploma of Applied Systems Theory and Family Therapy and I work with families to overcome relationship difficulties and grief and loss.
Depression
I work with clients to overcome depression using various therapies that are matched to client needs. These may include Cognitive Behavioural Therpy, Mindfulness therapy, trauma informed therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation Therapy, Gestalt Therapy and Attachment Based Therapy.
