Nourished Psychology
About Nourished Psychology
I am a psychologist working in the area of maternal mental health and am passionate about helping mothers navigate the ups and downs of motherhood. After becoming a mother myself, I realised what an immense adjustment it is and how mothers need to be better supported.Mothers need to be nourished physically, mentally and emotionally just as much as the babies do.
Areas of expertise
I am a registered psychologist with a Masters in Educational Developmental Psychology.
I am passionate about the area of maternal mental health and enjoy working with women across the following challenges:
- Body image
- Disordered eating
- Identity issues in motherhood
- Emotional regulation
- Parenting
- Anxiety
- Life transitions
Motherhood is messy, joyful and chaotic and sometimes we just need someone else to hold us through the ups and downs.

Why Motherhood Feels So Hard
Dear Mama, We see you. We see the way you pour yourself into motherhood, the way you carry the weight of the world while still showing up with love and strength, even when you feel like a shadow of yourself. As a society, we sit here adding to the pressure, adding to the load and, let's be brutally honest - failing you miserably every step of the way. We owe you an apology.
