I offer professional supervision that is supportive, reflective, and grounded in real-world experience. My approach is designed to help you build confidence, expand your knowledge and reflective capacity, and care for your professional self as an Art Therapist or Counsellor.

With approximately 13 years of experience across the disability and community sectors, I draw on a broad and rich background in both direct client work and personal family experience of disability. I have worked in a range of roles, including in-home disability support, youth residential care for refugees and children impacted by trauma, mental health practitioner work in supported independent living settings, and as an Art Therapist and Counsellor in my NDIS-registered private practice since 2019.

This diverse experience allows me to offer practical, values-aligned support to fellow practitioners navigating the challenges of working with diverse and complex client populations.

Focus Areas in Supervision

My supervision supports therapists navigating complex clinical work, private practice development, and identity as a practitioner. I bring a strong commitment to inclusive, neurodivergent-affirming and socially conscious practice, grounded in both lived and professional experience.

Areas of focus include:

Working with clients impacted by disability, chronic illness, autism and other neurodivergence, psychosocial disability, family violence, complex trauma, AOD challenges.
NDIS-related therapy work, including documentation, report writing, and multidisciplinary collaboration.
Developing and sustaining a private practice aligned with your values.
Nature-based, creative, and expressive arts approaches to therapy.
Person-centered and trauma-informed counselling and psychotherapy approaches.
Working with children, adolescents, and adults.
Working with parents or child clients from a trauma-informed and child-focused lens.
Exploring therapist identity, values, and reflective practice-welcoming of therapists with lived experience.

I am especially passionate about supporting early-career and emerging Art Therapists, and I aim to create a supervision space where your work and your wellbeing are equally valued.
