I have experience working with individuals, families, groups, and couples+, in both private and public settings, including headspace, the Royal Children’s Hospital, the Melbourne Attachment and Caregiving Lab, and adult mental health services. A lot of my work has been in the area of complex relational trauma, which can play out in later relationships. My doctoral research also explored the attachment bond and the intergenerational contributors to mental health and wellbeing, and that relational, attachment-based lens planted the seeds for Luma Room.
Today, Luma Room is a collective of independent couples+ therapists, working from our Brunswick rooms and via Telehealth. It’s an LGBTQIA+ affirming, neuroaffirming space, where all identities, cultural contexts, and relationship structures are welcome. We value warmth, collaboration, curiosity, and evidence-based care tailored to each unique relationship. Alongside therapy, we offer reconnection retreats and therapist-guided date nights and hope to be a place for all things relationships.
Luma Room is named for light, which can have many meanings; from warmth, to radiance, to insight, to levity, to nourishment. We hope that Luma Room is a place where you can feel welcomed, a place to grow, and place where you can come, as needed, to nurture the connections that are significant to you.
