I am credentialed in Australia with over 5 years of professional experience community work, mental health, disability, and child protection. My educational background includes studies in philosophy, religion, and social work completed in 2011, 2015, and 2018, respectively. I have helped many clients with challenges like addictions, parenting, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, anxiety, and depression. In my work, I follow a humanistic approach, focusing on the individual's unique experiences, strengths, and potential for growth. I strive to create a warm, accepting, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and feelings. Taking that first step to begin therapy can be scary, and I want to commend you for your bravery in seeking help!

I’ve never done therapy before and didn’t know what to expect. I certainly didn’t expect it to be so easy talking to someone I’d just met on a video chat, or for those conversations to dramatically improve my perspective on my situation. Emmanuel is a great person, and a great therapist. It was natural talking to him without judgment and he was insightful without pushing. Thank you for your time and help
