Hi, I'm Natalie

It takes courage to reach out for help, especially when things have felt overwhelming or uncertain. If you’re exploring support for the first time, you’re not alone. Therapy can offer a calm, supportive space to make sense of what’s happening and build tools to cope.

I’m a registered psychologist who understands that life can be both meaningful and complicated — often at the same time. Like many people, I’ve navigated significant transitions and life stages, including long-term relationships, family change, parenting, grandparenting, and supporting loved ones through illness, aged care, and grief. These experiences have deepened my empathy and reinforced something I strongly believe: we are shaped by what we live through, and we don’t have to carry it alone. I began studying psychology in my 30s and quickly found that it helped make sense of so much — why we think the way we do, why patterns repeat, why we sometimes do things we know aren’t helpful, and why change can feel so hard, even when we want it. One of the most empowering truths I’ve learned is that many of our behaviours are learned — and if something has been learned, it can also be understood, unlearned, and reshaped with the right support and tools. Professionally, I’ve worked across a range of settings including occupational rehabilitation and workplace-based roles, supporting people experiencing injury, chronic pain, adjustment difficulties, bullying, anxiety, and depression. I’ve also worked in a retreat setting supporting individuals working through addiction and longstanding maladaptive behaviours. For a number of years now, I’ve worked in private practice, where I support adults who are trying to make sense of their world, their experiences, and the patterns that keep them feeling stuck. I aim to offer a space that is warm, supportive, and practical — where you feel genuinely heard and where we can work together toward change that feels achievable and sustainable.

My Approach

I use a collaborative, client-centred approach informed by ACT, DBT, Schema Therapy, and CBT. My work is also influenced by neuropsychotherapy and current learning in polyvagal theory, particularly in understanding trauma responses and regulation. Above all, I aim to provide a safe, respectful space where you feel genuinely heard. Therapy is not about being “fixed” — it’s about building insight, learning effective strategies, and feeling empowered to create change. We will work together toward treatment goals that are realistic, values-based, and meaningful.
