I provide (1) Loss and grief counselling (dying, death, bereavement including companion animal loss; and non-death losses from any life transition including mental health); (2) grief, life, neurodivergent (inc ADHD) & wellness coaching; (3) Organising & productivity consulting (clutter, hoarding, chronic overcommitment, chronic disorganisation).
Do you feel like you are lost in a wilderness of loss and grief and fed up with people telling you to get over it? Have you lost your direction and not sure where you are heading, not living your values and not going anywhere, going in circles, or going backwards? Do you feel that home or work is not how you would like it to be? Do you feel overwhelmed with commitments, a never ending to-do-list and feel in a brain fog? Through counselling, coaching and consulting I can help you to honour your loss, rebuild your life, find your place to meet, acknowledge and accept where you are and where you might want to be.

Hoarding Counsellors
What is the most effective treatment for hoarding?
Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has been well-studied in the treatment of hoarding. This type of therapy includes changing beliefs surrounding possessions, as well as learning how to discard items and reduce acquisitions. The hoarder may also gain much-needed organizational skills. Another useful therapy may be compassion-focused therapy, which can address emotion regulation and negative self-perception.
How long does therapy for hoarding take?
Although treatment can vary, most people demonstrate improvement after 23 sessions, with some showing improvement after just a few sessions. Researchers have developed a 26-session cognitive behavioral program. People who hoard may need “maintenance” sessions over the years if the problem arises repeatedly.
Are there medications for hoarding?
The more commonly-prescribed medications for hoarding are including antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This can include drugs such as venlafaxine and paroxetine. And because hoarding disorder is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, medications for OCD, such as clomipramine, may be effective for hoarding as well.
Can hoarding come back after treatment?
Hoarding is a chronic disorder and it can last throughout an individual’s lifetime. Regularly checking in with a psychotherapist can help manage symptoms long-term. A good therapist will help the person learn needed skills including decision-making, organization, and stress reduction. The patient will gain a better perspective and the need to cling to useless items will lessen.
