The trauma psychologist for when the healing work hasn’t helped enough

Still struggling despite everything you've tried?

Drawing on 7,000+ hours of trauma therapy experience, I share the clinical thinking that helps uncover why previous healing efforts may not have worked, what might have been missed, and what could finally help you feel better.

You’ve done the reading. You’ve learned the concepts. You know the language.

but knowing the concepts and understanding how they actually work are two different things.

You can understand triggers, attachment, avoidance, shame, boundaries and nervous-system regulation, and still find yourself wondering:

Am I triggered, or is this reaction normal?
Is this anxiety, or is there actually something wrong?
Am I setting a healthy boundary, or avoiding something?

Sometimes, several explanations seem to fit the same experience. But understanding which explanation is relevant, and why, isn’t always straightforward.

Not all relationship anxiety is attachment-related. Not all discomfort is a trauma trigger. And what looks like avoidance might be a perfectly reasonable decision to walk away.

These distinctions matter because the way you explain an experience shapes how you understand yourself and what you decide to do next.

I bring the clinical reasoning of an experienced trauma psychologist to conversations that rarely go beyond the basics.

Less collecting concepts and oversimplified takes. More understanding what’s actually going on, and what you can do about it.

The clinical thinking behind the content

Trauma isn’t one small part of my work. it’s the entire focus of my clinical practice.

I’ve completed eight years of university training, including a Master of Clinical Psychology, and hold consultant-level EMDR accreditation (meaning I’m qualified to supervise other therapists learning EMDR). I’ve also been selected by national EMDR training providers to support the training of other EMDR therapists across Australia.

Across 7,000+ trauma therapy sessions, I’ve learned that understanding what’s happening for a person requires more than recognising psychological concepts. It means questioning assumptions, exploring alternative explanations and recognising the distinctions that aren’t always obvious at first glance.

That’s the kind of thinking I bring to everything I do: evidence-led, clinically grounded and willing to explore the details that simpler explanations leave out.

Eight years of university. Thousands of clinical hours. Far too much of the good stuff to keep to myself.
