Therapy Approach

I was originally trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) then was trained in Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT). I started my Schema Therapy journey in 2022 and have not looked back. The majority of my clinical work is now in Schema Therapy integrating DBT. I have completed trainings accredited by International Society of Schema Therapy (ISST) over the past three years in the field of complex mental health presentations. I am undergoing process to be an ISST Accredited Schema Therapist (individual). Also, as a qualified DBT Therapist, I deliver individual DBT and skill groups in Adelaide.
