I am a Registered Psychologist with over 8 years of experience working with adolescents and adults in mental health. I was born and raised in Indonesia, but Brisbane has been my home for the past 14 years.
I have a special interest and vast experience in supporting adolescents and adults through various life challenges and mental health concerns. My expertise includes helping clients manage:
I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their challenges and work towards their goals. My therapeutic style integrates evidence-based approaches while remaining warm and collaborative, with a focus on building strong therapeutic relationships where clients feel understood and supported.
I can conduct therapy in English and Indonesian.
Having experienced the journey of cultural adaptation myself, I bring a deep understanding and sensitivity to working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. I provide culturally informed therapy and am experienced in working with clients across various cultural contexts and sexual identities. I understand the unique challenges that come with navigating multiple cultural identities and life transitions.
I particularly enjoy helping clients develop practical skills they can apply in their daily lives, especially in their professional development and career journeys. As we spend a significant part of our lives at work, I understand how crucial career satisfaction is to overall wellbeing and mental health. My goal as a therapist is to empower clients with the tools and insights they need to make meaningful changes in their lives and develop greater self-understanding.
“As a psychologist, I consider myself like the GPS. You will be driving and letting me know where you would like us to go, a.k.a. your therapeutic goals. I will provide you with different pathways you can take to get you there”.
