Since graduating in 1987 I have worked in a range of roles, including disability, mental health and child and family services. I have also had a broad life experience that has not been without its challenges. After moving to Yarrawonga Mulwala in recent years I am now focusing on providing counselling and therapy to individuals and couples who are dealing with the issues that life throws us. With a focus on Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) which is a powerful, evidence-based model that has been successful in treating an array of disorders such as depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, self-harm, post-traumatic stress, and eating disorders. This therapy gives us the tools to live our lives to their full potential. To quote Helen Keller, "Life is either a daring adventure or nothing"
