Integrative Psychotherapy:
A path of a deep relationship with yourself
Psychotherapy is not about analysing what's wrong with you. It's about coming into relationship with all of what you are — your patterns, your nervous system, your history, your longings, your body.
My approach to psychotherapy draws on multiple evidence-based and body-centred modalities, woven together in response to what is alive for you in each session. Sessions are co-created, relational, and grounded in both clinical training and genuine human presence.
I hold dual registration as an Occupational Therapist (AHPRA) and Psychotherapist (PACFA), and I am working toward Mental Health Endorsement, which will allow eligible clients to access Medicare rebates via a GP Mental Health Care Plan. If you'd like to know more, please ask.
Who is Psychotherapy For?
Integrative psychotherapy is beneficial for individuals seeking:
-
Relief from anxiety, depression, and emotional overwhelm.
-
Support in navigating trauma and past wounds.
-
Guidance through life transitions, grief, or relationship challenges.
-
A deeper connection with self through somatic awareness and nervous system regulation.
-
Integration support for psychedelic experiences, spiritual awakenings, or profound life changes.
-
A more conscious, embodied way of living that supports healing and growth.
No matter where you are on your journey, psychotherapy provides a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore your emotions, beliefs, and experiences without fear of judgment.
My Approach to Psychotherapy
My psychotherapy sessions integrate Process-Oriented Psychology, Somatic Therapy, and extensive training in EMDR, resource therapy, & IFS to support deep self-awareness, nervous system regulation, and trauma recovery. I offer a holistic, embodied approach to healing, combining mindfulness, self-inquiry, and psycho-spiritual exploration.
EMDR — Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing
EMDR is one of the most extensively researched trauma therapies available. It works by supporting the brain's natural information processing — allowing traumatic memories to be digested and integrated, rather than remaining raw and reactive.
In sessions, we work with bilateral stimulation (often eye movements or tapping) while gently holding difficult experiences. EMDR does not require you to talk through what happened in detail. It works at the level of the nervous system and memory. Many clients find this a profound relief.
Somatic Therapy: Healing Through the Body
Your body holds the imprints of your experiences, including past trauma and emotional patterns. Somatic therapy is a body-based approach that helps you process and release stored emotions, allowing your nervous system to regulate and heal. By reconnecting with your physical sensations, we create a deeper level of healing that extends beyond cognitive understanding. This is a a relational modality that integrates: neuroscience and polyvagal theory and is a gateway to reconnect with coming home to yourself, authenticity and safety.
Process Oriented Psychology: Blending Spirituality & Psychology
Process work integrates multiple modalities including resource therapy, non-dual therapy, mindfulness, narrative therapy, somatics, cognitive behavioural therapy and motivational interviewing. Process work is a platform in which we can bridge psychology and spirituality. It recognises and invites us to explore somatics (body sensations), dreams, relationships, movement tendencies and our connection with our society and culture. Our insights and realisations lead to deep transformations and sustainable change in your world.
Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Integration
If you have engaged in psychedelic therapy or non-ordinary states of consciousness, integration is a crucial part of the process. Psychedelic experiences can bring profound insights, but without proper support, it can be challenging to apply these revelations in daily life. Through therapeutic integration sessions, we work together to make sense of your experiences, helping you incorporate them into a grounded and meaningful healing journey. I support clients conceptualise and understand their private journeys through therapy before and after they have their own psychedelic experience. It does not include facilitation of journeys or provision of psychedelics.
What Occupational Therapy Brings to Psychotherapy:The Psychospiritual Dimension
My work does not stop at the psychological. I hold a deep interest in and training across the territory where psychology and spirituality meet.
This means I can sit with you in the questions that don't have clinical answers: Why am I here? What does this suffering mean? Who am I beneath all of this? What is the self that remains when everything else falls away?
It means I take seriously the experiences that mainstream mental health sometimes struggles to hold spiritual emergence, non-dual states, the dissolution of the known self, the terrifying and luminous edges of consciousness. I meet these not with diagnosis, but with informed, grounded, and genuinely curious presence.
And it means that healing, in this room, is not only the reduction of symptoms. It is the possibility of coming home — to yourself, to your life, to something that feels like love.
I bring something to the therapy room that is not common: a clinical framework for understanding how mental health lives in the body and in daily life.
Occupational therapy is grounded in the belief that meaningful activity, functional capacity, and the routines of daily living are inseparable from mental health. Where psychotherapy explores the inner landscape, OT asks: how is this showing up in how you live? In how you sleep, work, rest, connect, and move through your days?
Please Note: I do not conduct functional capacity assessments, write NDIS reports, or provide medico-legal documentation. My practice is wholly therapeutic and depth-oriented.
Session Packages: A Commitment to Deep Inner Work
Healing isn’t something we rush. It’s a process of unfolding—of meeting ourselves again and again with curiosity, kindness, and honesty. A series of sessions offers the steady ground needed for real shifts to take root, supporting you as you move through life’s challenges with greater awareness and self-trust.
Choosing a package is an act of commitment—not just to therapy, but to yourself. To the deeper work of listening, softening, integrating, and growing in a way that honours your nervous system, resources and your unique path.
