My Story
My journey into becoming a leading Schema Therapy and EMDR supervisor grew out of years of clinical practice, relentless curiosity, and a deep commitment to helping therapists do meaningful, sustainable work.
I began as many therapists do — passionate, driven, and determined to make a difference. But as I moved deeper into trauma work, I realised that technical skill alone wasn’t enough. Therapists needed confidence, clarity, more playfulness and a grounded sense of self to navigate the complexity of trauma therapy without burning out. That realisation shaped the direction of my entire career.
Over the years, I immersed myself in Schema Therapy and EMDR, pursuing advanced training, supervision, and every opportunity to refine my craft. What started as personal development evolved into a calling: supporting other therapists to grow their competence, expand their impact, and stay well in the process.
Today, I’m known for providing expert‑level supervision that blends clinical precision with real‑world practicality. I’ve had the privilege of training thousands of therapists across Australia and internationally, helping them build mastery in Schema Therapy, EMDR, and trauma‑informed practice. My work is grounded, honest, and focused on what actually works in the therapy room — not just in theory, but in the lived reality of clinical practice.
Along the way, I began writing Schema Therapy blogs to demystify complex concepts and make high‑quality clinical thinking accessible. Those articles have become a trusted resource for therapists wanting clarity, depth, and guidance they can immediately apply with clients. I also led a 5,000‑plus member community, Schema Therapy Made Simple (now closed), for several years, where I focused on sharing practical skills, clinical insights and accessible guidance to help therapists strengthen their Schema Therapy practice.
My mission is simple: to help therapists grow with confidence, competence and integrity — without losing themselves in the process. Whether through supervision, training, or writing, I’m committed to supporting you to build a sustainable, impactful career grounded in excellence and wellbeing.
