About Gae
I am a registered psychologist working in a bespoke private practice. I provide counselling/therapy, coaching, and assessment services. Many of my clients are seeking professional support for trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, decision making, major life transitions, self awareness, and self management skill development. All of the work that I undertake is uniquely tailored to each client's needs.
