Emily currently provides therapy to both youth and adult clients with a wide range of presentations, including anxiety disorders (including OCD), low mood and depression, life transitions and adjustments, burnout, and exploring self identity. Emily recognises the need for a neuroaffirming, flexible approach to therapy and is able to use a range of different evidence based therapeutic approaches with clients to help work toward their goals. Emily is passionate about showing up as her authentic self as a therapist, and allowing clients to do the same.

Emily also offers more practical approaches to supporting clients’ mental health and wellbeing where a client feels this would be helpful. This can be especially helpful in periods of burnout and overwhelm. Often, talking therapy can fall short for neurodivergent folk (diagnosed or self-identifying), who are prone to intellectualising their experiences and masking their true feelings. In these cases, Emily draws on her experiences in Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) and neuroaffirming frameworks to support clients to build and implement practical strategies that harness their strengths and work for them. This may be emotional regulation skills, executive functioning skills (think time management, keeping track of to-do lists etc), sensory skills, and coming up with creative systems and processes that help overcome the unique challenges someone may be facing.

Sessions are billed at $280/ 50 min. Medicare rebates will be available for up to 10 sessions per calendar year with a Mental Health Treatment Plan. The current rebate for a 50-minute session with a clinical psychologist is $145.25. Many private health insurance plans also cover psychological treatment, but this varies per provider, so best to check with them directly. 

In the interest of equity this fee has been set below the recommended fee of $315 suggested by AAPi (Australian Association of Psychologists Inc)'s 2024-2025 Schedule of Recommended Fees.
