About

Hi, I’m Julia, a clinical psychologist with over 10 years’ experience.

People often come to see me when something no longer feels sustainable, when they’re tired of holding it all together, repeating the same patterns, or feeling anxious, flat, or disconnected.

In our work together, we take the time to understand what’s been shaping your inner world and relationships, and gently shift what’s no longer working. I’m less focused on quick fixes, and more on helping you make changes that actually last.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, grief, life transitions, and relationship difficulties.

I also have a particular interest in women’s mental health across the lifespan, including the perinatal period.

My approach is thoughtful and tailored to you, drawing on therapies such as EMDR, psychodynamic psychotherapy, mindfulness-based approaches, and attachment-focused work.

Alongside private practice, I hold a role in clinical psychology at the Royal Women’s Hospital.

My qualifications: BASc(Psych)(Hons). MPsych (Clinical).
