Bee Well Therapies was developed to inspire you to achieve optimal levels of health and wellbeing and to support your personal growth and ability to adapt to life’s challenges.
Our values and practices empower a holistic and whole-person approach that looks at the connections between your physical, nutritional, emotional, psychological, and spiritual/authentic parts of yourself.
We take a comprehensive and deep look at your presenting symptoms and get to the root cause of your struggles. Symptoms are viewed as the communication method (“clues”) of something deeper going on in your body and/or subconscious mind (below our level of conscious awareness).
Mindfulness-based interventions are used to help us better understand you on a deeper level. These include focusing your awareness on the present moment while observing/noticing and accepting (without judgement) your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations.
As trauma is stored in the body, Bee Well Therapies utilises somatic therapy techniques for the mind - body connection and clinical Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) assists the regulation of the nervous system when processing trauma.

Registered Psychologist (BA, PostGradDipPsych, MProfPsych)
I use a compassionate, strengths-based, and self-acceptance approach. I offer a calming and relaxed environment to help you feel as comfortable as possible. I seek to understand you and where you are at in your life with a non-judgemental philosophy. I practice from a person-centred approach, meaning you, the client, are the expert on your life.
How I work with you:
I am trained and experienced in a range of trauma-informed techniques and therapies including:
• Mindfulness and meditation-based practices
• Somatic Therapies
• Schema Therapy
• Clinical Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
• Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
• NeurOptimal Neurofeedback brain training (coming soon)
• Where appropriate I include my therapy dog in sessions for Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT)
There is capacity for Neurodiverse affirming assessments (looking at Autism and/or ADHD) and adaptive functioning assessments for NDIS.
Appointments can be made for telehealth sessions (i.e., online video conferencing or by telephone) or a mix of telehealth session and home visits (limited capacity for home visits).
NDIS participants (plan or self-managed) are welcome and referrals under a GP mental health care plan are eligible for Medicare rebates.
I am a Psychology Board of Australia approved supervisor with capacity to supervise provisional psychologists.
