Olive Branch Psychology 

As a psychologist and clinical family therapist, I offer a supportive space to explore challenges, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change, providing therapy to adolescents, adults, couples, and families in Toowong.

Welcome to Olive Branch Psychology, a private psychology practice supporting emotional wellbeing, relationships, and mental health in Brisbane.

People often seek support when life begins to feel overwhelming, distressing, or difficult to manage in familiar ways. Whatever has brought you here, I aim to approach your experience with care, respect, and curiosity, taking the time to understand the circumstances that have shaped your life and current challenges.

As a psychologist and clinical family therapist, I work from a systemic and relational perspective. I understand that our experiences, relationships, and environments influence how we see ourselves, connect with others, and navigate life's challenges. I provide a supportive and collaborative space for individuals, couples, and families to explore these experiences and develop new ways of understanding and responding to them.

I draw on evidence-based approaches, including systemic and relational interventions that explore patterns within relationships, alongside EMDR, to support people experiencing trauma, PTSD and Complex PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. Together, we work to address the underlying factors contributing to current challenges, strengthen resilience, and create meaningful and lasting change.

My aim is to support you in strengthening your relationships with yourself and others, enhancing your wellbeing, and building a life that feels more connected, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.

About Olive Branch Psychology

At Olive Branch Psychology, our vision is to offer a therapeutic space where individuals, couples, and families feel safe and supported to understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that shape their lives.

Olive Branch Psychology values the therapeutic relationship, believing that healing happens within relationships. This relationship provides a space for curiosity, reflection, and growth, helping people better understand themselves and the patterns shaping their lives.

Whether supporting an individual's mental health, helping people move through periods of feeling stuck, or navigating complex relationship and family dynamics, our vision is to walk alongside people with warmth, respect, and a commitment to meaningful, lasting change.
