Welcome to Morning Star Psychology

The Morning Star (Nthanda) is the brightest and earliest indicator of a new day, well before sunrise.

Our ancestors often relied on the Morning Star as a meeting time to commence their journey. The Morning Star is depicted as a guiding light representing hope and new beginnings.

Inspired by this meaning, Morning Star Psychology in Mackay provides a welcoming and supportive space.

The practice offers evidence-based, neuroaffirming and cost-effective therapeutic interventions for children (from the age of 5), adolescents and adults walking alongside each individual and their families as they embark on their own journey towards improved health outcomes. I collaborate with parents and caregivers, keeping you informed, involved, and supported every step of the way.

Having migrated to Australia myself, I understand firsthand the courage it takes to build a life in a new country. This lived experience has shaped my deep passion for working in migration psychology. I am committed to supporting families who may be carrying pre-migration trauma, adjusting to a new culture, feeling socially isolated, or navigating subtle forms of discrimination. My goal is to offer a safe, culturally sensitive space where your experiences are understood, validated, and gently supported as you find your footing and rebuild a sense of belonging
