School leaders and staff are facing challenging times. Balancing the needs of students, colleagues and leaders with our own life transitions and challenges, and those of our own families, can be difficult and at times overwhelming. Finding evidence based ways to cope and thrive empowers school staff to be well and live well (and work well too).

Isn’t this thing called life so interesting! The ups and downs and challenges we face as we live our lives. Humans are great problem solvers and mostly we can be pretty good at working things out. But sometimes we can’t – we can feel stuck, unsure, lost and more. Friends and family can be too close to be impartial, or might be part of what we are struggling with. This is where counselling can be useful. To sit with someone who hears and sees us as we are. Some days you might need to sit and cry, other times to have someone cheer you on as you lean in hard, and other times it might be to learn something new about yourself.

As your counsellor, I work with you to meet the challenges in your life as you experience them. In a safe, caring space you are free to express your feelings, be heard and understood: where you can honestly explore your concerns. Together, we can clarify what kind of life you want to live, recognise your strengths and resources, discover your options, increase your self-awareness, and develop strategies to help you live your life the way you choose. My background in the performing arts has given me an appreciation of the incredible diversity in perspectives and choices we make as individuals, and to truly value the human spirit.
