About Erica
I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist with a background across both physical and mental health, including workplace risk and wellness. I have worked in my own practice for more than ten years in regional areas. I value the therapeutic relationship with my clients, and I’m passionate about helping people feel seen, understood and empowered to make meaningful change.
I have had the privilege of supporting people from all walks of life, and I am continually inspired by the strength and resilience I see in my clients.
My approach is warm, collaborative and trauma-informed. I use evidence-based therapies, and I also bring compassion, curiosity and genuine human connection into each session. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. I will meet you exactly where you are, and we will work together towards your goals.
Complex Trauma
This is my primary area of focus. I help my clients understand how trauma affects the nervous system, relationships and beliefs about themselves. Together we work on safety, stabilisation and skills for lasting change, at a pace that feels right for them.
Chronic Health & Adjustment to Illness
With training in both general and psychiatric nursing, I take a whole-person view of health. I support clients living with chronic conditions and persistent pain, and I can assist with health-related behaviour change, including pre- and post-bariatric surgery care. Where helpful, I collaborate with your medical and allied health team.
Workplace Mental Health & Rehabilitation
I have experience in occupational medicine settings, and I support stress, burnout, injury adjustment and return-to-work planning. I provide practical strategies to maintain wellbeing and performance at work.
Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or simply feeling stuck, I believe that healing happens when we feel safe, supported, and genuinely heard in both body and mind.
If you are considering starting therapy- or returning to it- I would be honoured to walk alongside you on your path toward healing, growth, and greater self-understanding.
“I am here to help you feel safe, heard and genuinely supported—so we can work together toward change that lasts.”
