About Carmen

“Committed to supporting great relationships and fulfilling lives.”
13 1 21 cropped_edited.jpg

Although my training and experience are important, I consider genuine support and care coupled with an open mind, unconditional respect and my willingness to share your vision of a fulfilling life as the qualities that will be of most value to you.

​

I am professionally trained and qualified with over 30 years of clinical experience in counselling and psychotherapy for individuals and couples. I also provide clinical supervision and mentoring to Counsellors and Psychotherapists.

​

In addition to private practice, I have enjoyed my work as an educator where I've lectured and supervised at three Sydney training colleges. During my time as Associate Director of Education at Nature Care College I collaborated in curriculum development across a range of disciplines and have a long-held interest in the professional development of  early career practitioners.  I enjoy supervising and mentoring final year students and new graduates as they develop personally and professionally.

​

More than all of this, I am in awe of the the courage I witness as people face the challenges life presents alongside the inner challenges of their 'self'.
I hold the trust people place in me as a great privilege by which I am deeply humbled.  

My studies have been extensive and include marriage and relationship counselling (I am a certified EFT Couples Therapist), individual counselling and psychotherapy, behavioural neuroscience, and career coaching. I undertake professional development training  every year to stay current with research and new approaches in my field. I particularly enjoy presenting at conferences and to alumni.
