I’m Joy, a PACFA-registered Clinical Counsellor with years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life experiences, challenges and transitions.

My work with people from many different walks of life has shaped my belief that there is no single story, no single path to healing, and no one-size-fits-all approach to wellbeing.

My counselling style is warm, compassionate and collaborative. I take the time to understand the person behind the difficulty. Together, we can explore what you are experiencing, understand patterns that may be affecting you, reconnect with your strengths and values, and consider what you want your life to look like moving forward.

My practice draws on evidence-informed approaches including person-centred counselling, CBT, DBT, ACT, Emotionally Focused approaches, Internal Family Systems-informed work, trauma-informed practice and somatic approaches. I tailor these approaches to the individual rather than expecting the individual to fit a particular therapy.

I believe counselling can provide an opportunity to pause, make sense of what has happened, and begin reconnecting with yourself in a way that feels safe and meaningful.

My role is not to tell you who you should be or how you should live. It is to walk alongside you with curiosity, respect and compassion.
