I am the founder of Expressive Therapy Clinic. I have completed a Graduate Diploma in Expressive Therapies and a Masters Degree in Art Therapy at the University of Western Sydney. I have worked as an Art Psychotherapist for many years in the fields of Disability, Addictions and Behavioural therapy. My passion is facilitating programs and individual therapy sessions that help clients learn experientially through creativity alongside the skills taught in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and other therapies. I have found over the last 6 years that this approach assists clients suffering symptoms of anxiety disorders, depression, behavioural issues, PTSD and specifically clients who suffer the traits of Borderline Personality Disorder. I have also worked as a consultant to Private Hospitals in Sydney providing these services. I have been trained as an Individual DBT Therapist through Marsha Linehan’s accredited trainers ‘Behavioral Technologies LLC and have been trained in Positive Psychology.I offer training sessions for other allied health practitioners in my field of speciality. I supervise other Art Psychotherapists and Counsellors. I have lectured at the University of Western Sydney and supervised student placements. I have published an article on her work in Art Psychotherapy and DBT in the 2nd Edition of ANZJAT (Australia and New Zealand Journal of Art Therapy) on DBT and Art Psychotherapy. I have previously presented and run workshops at Conferences in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore and have volunteered for the past 6 years up until 2012 on the Committee of Management of ANZATA (Australia and New Zealand Arts Therapy Association) . I am a Level 4 Counsellor and have been involved with the establishment and criteria for the new College of Creative Arts Therapies within ACA.
