My passion is to offer a safe and reflective space to those who are looking to build a deeper understanding of themselves and re-gain the capacity to cope with or overcome the difficult emotional challenges that life can bring. It is re-building a sense of connection to ourselves that can help us live a more meaningful life aligned with our values. I work with adults (18 and above) and am passionate about the area of trauma and self-esteem concerns.

Have you lost your way? Has grief or a sense of hopelessness stolen your joy? Do you struggle with self-confidence, anxiety, shame, or self-doubt? Are you desiring a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in your life? Would life be better if you could find your authentic self; getting reacquainted with who you really are? I believe new beginnings and fresh starts are possible. As a registered counsellor I do not provide my services under Medicare or Mental Health Care Plans.

We’re all complex, messy humans just doing our best to get along in the world. Sometimes, though, we need a little help. My approach to counselling is compassionate and non-judgemental, helping you to be more authentically you, and to cope better with your personal struggles. I believe in and value the uniqueness of every person, and want to help you be more content and fully yourself beyond whatever 'label' might have been applied.
