I am a member of the LGBTIQA+ community and welcome working with people from the community for any issue, but particularly with suicidality and gender dysphoria. I also very much welcome working with non-LGBTIQA+ men and women for any of the difficulties listed on my Specialities page and other issues beyond that list.
I work with people’s understanding of their mental states and knowledge of their body, utilising somatic principles in conjunction with the specialist modalities listed above.
The areas I specialise in are as follows: attachment disorders, complex trauma histories, those diagnosed with personality disorders, specialising in Borderline Personality Disorder. More recently I have been working with a lot of clients who have ADHD and ASD. I offer ASD assessments and hope to offer ADHD assessment screeners soon. I have had some success with those diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and BiPolar Affective Disorder.
I am open to working with adults from the age of 16 through to the end of life.
Psychotherapy with Anna provides a safe and confidential environment allowing you to develop a therapeutic relationship for exploring problems and difficulties in your life. This relationship offers you new experiences that facilitate transformational change and personal growth.
Whether it's wanting to heal from childhood trauma, reduce anxiety and stress, process loss and grief or navigate relationship or career change, I am here to support you. My passion lies in walking beside you to make meaning of your experiences, getting to know the lesser known parts of you and helping you navigate through life's challenges. With my grounded, calm and trauma-informed approach I create a safe and compassionate space where you feel genuinely heard and seen.
I enjoy working collaboratively to create a shared sense of the goals and process of therapy. My work is informed by clinical psychology within a psychodynamic framework, my training in somatic psychotherapy, and a deep interest in the intersection of the mind, body, emotions and spirit. As well as the more conventional approaches of clinical psychology I make active use of my background in yoga, meditation and creative arts therapies. My approach is guided by assisting you to identify your deeper life callings and to identifying how you might make these more central to your lived experience. I have presented aspects of my work at conferences in Australian capital cities and internationally in Berlin and Berne, Switzerland. As well as my work as a therapist I am a musician, gardener and nature lover.
