I have seven years experience working with adults and young people in a clinical setting. I strive to be empathic, warm and sensitive to my clients needs and to be both respectful and collaborative. I use a holistic approach based on a shared formulation to address my client__s difficulties and set goals for recovery. I also help clients explore the deeper origins of their distress and their views of themselves and the world around them. My Masters research thesis was on intrusive thoughts and the need for control in Anorexia Nervosa and I worked closely with the Royal Melbourne Hospital Eating Disorders Unit.
