Person-Centred Counselling in Hunter Region, NSW

As a Sexologist and Social Worker, I am here to support clients with a range of presenting difficulties. I offer support to people needing sex therapy, relationship/couples therapy, perinatal therapy, and general counselling. I have expertise in supporting those with sexual function issues, including painful sex, erectile dysfunction, vaginismus and more. I also support people experiencing performance anxiety, body image concerns, relationship issues, sexual assault survivors, sex workers, and those needing support with their gender and sexuality. I provide a warm, safe and non-judgemental space to meet client needs.

I utilise a person-centred approach to help clients adjust to and cope with difficulties that are arising in their life. I believe you are the expert on your own life and I enjoy collaborating with clients to evoke meaningful change. I can assist clients who are experiencing: stress, anxiety, depression, women's health issues (coping with endometriosis, fibroids, fertility and other reproductive health concerns), life transitions, grief and loss, addiction and substance use issues, and relationship concerns.

I offer tele-health services for clients across Australia. My ideal client wants to be resilient in the face of life’s inevitable challenges, heal emotional wounds, invest in their relationships, develop their self-awareness, break free from self limiting beliefs, make peace with their past and as a result, consciously create a more meaningful and authentic life.

I have a passion for working with clients to resolve trauma. Making sense of traumatic experiences, their effect on our mental health and relationships, and processing these safely, allows for us to be our most authentic and integrated self. I also work with individuals, parents and carers supporting their children or loved ones with acute mental health and traumatic experiences.

My clients are both couples and individuals. Couples go through difference stages throughout their journey together. Every couple is different and so, every couple will handle challenges differently, express love differently and communicate differently. The same thing applies for individuals. Some clients want to work on certain skills to improve relationships with a romantic partner, family or friends. Build self esteem or start dating again. Work through other life challenges you are currently facing, such as career. Achieve a greater self-awareness to help you navigate through these challenges.

I work with Couples and Individuals. Some of the common issues that couples bring to counselling are; communication issues, conflict, a break down in trust, affairs, mental health concerns that are impacting the relationship, lack of emotional and or physical intimacy, conflict and stress over parenting, grief, the impact of past traumas, transitioning into retirement and new relationships. The Imago Relationship Model facilitates a new way of communication that allows couples to understand themselves and their partners more deeply and bring greater safety, connection, healing, growth and joy.

Most issues that people experience have their origins in childhood when developmental needs were not met. Most parents mean well and do their best but because our culture is generally ignorant about the early needs of children the child has to learn how to adapt. For example a parent because of their upbringing may be easily angered. One way is for the child to move towards the parent by always trying to please the parent to ward off an angry episode. That is the behavior and the belief is "I have to be good or mummy will not love me." This establishes a mode that may not be helpful in later life in intimate relationships.

I believe therapy should be individually tailored for clients to work on the goals they identify as important. A non- judgemental and empathetic client centred approach is important and I endeavour to ensure the client feels supported and cared for within a safe space during our sessions together.
