I'd like to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, your struggles and together we will safely 'untangle' the knots that keep you stuck. www.timetountangle.com.au

Hello, it's nice to meet you here. If you are struggling with eating or body image issues, I can support you to find a way out. You may be stuck in cycles and patterns of behaviours with food that you know are not helpful but you can't find a way to make changes. You may be dissatisfied with your body and long to find some peace but don't know where to start. You may have had a difficult relationship with food for a long or short time and would love for this to no longer be an issue in your life. You may have previously accessed health services for your eating disorder or you may never spoken of these challenges to anyone.

Recovery from poor body image, disordered eating, and eating disorders is possible. This journey looks different for every individual. Seeking help on this journey is critical. Whether you are new to counselling or have explored counselling previously, every counsellor's approach is different. You and your journey are unique, and so are we as counsellors. If you would like to explore how I might be able to help you navigate your story, your way, please reach out!

I am passionate about neuroscience that enables us to become aware of the neurophysiological circuits that drive us mostly unbeknowns to us at a conscious level. Psychoeducation is paramount to gain resilience and self-regulation. Those who become well-equipped to change their unwanted, undesirable behaviours are people who understand how to use their superpowers for quality-of-life instead of mismanaging them in ways that can have devastating effects on their wellbeing and life trajectory. Together we can work on reacquainting you with your former self or reinventing a new You poised to navigate life with a greater ease.
