Hi, I'm Shivonne

Accredited Mental Health Social Worker | Registered Play Therapist – Supervisor | Clinical Supervisor | 15+ years experience

I'm an experienced mental health clinician working with children, adolescents, adults and families, helping them navigate challenges and make meaningful changes in their lives.

My approach is grounded in an understanding of trauma, attachment, development and relationships, and how our experiences shape our emotional wellbeing.

I believe our thoughts, feelings and behaviours often make sense when we understand the bigger picture. Our relationships, past experiences and the environments we live in all influence how we feel, cope and connect with others.

I take the time to listen and understand your individual circumstances, working alongside you to explore what's contributing to the difficulties you're experiencing and what might help.

My approach is warm, collaborative and practical, combining therapeutic understanding with strategies and skills that can make a difference in everyday life.
