Finding a therapist to help with trauma, relationships, and sex can be daunting. You need someone who understands the complexity of trauma and can help you navigate the healing process. Together, we can explore the past and work towards creating a brighter future. I provide a safe space where you can speak freely in the language you're comfortable with. It's not only about what happened to you but also what didn't. Let's leave behind society's judgments and explore self-acceptance. You can talk to me about your trauma, emotional pain, sexual difficulties and pleasures, and relationship struggles without fear of judgment.

Not everyone enjoys speaking out loud. Would you like to communicate through text with someone in Australia? Maybe you just like having the space to think as you type out your response during counselling, or maybe you want to talk about something difficult, and you feel like it would be easier through text.

Gees, life can feel pretty crap hey!? Especially for us- the gentle souls of the world. The introverts, INFJ’s, empaths, HSP’s… and maaaaybe perhaps, neurodivergent? Not only do we need to deal with our own crap- the stress, the trauma, the not fitting in… But we’re also overwhelmed and completely burnt out from feeling the world around us. It sucks when we feel misunderstood. It sucks even more when going about our day feels like walking through mud- because of the depression, anxiety, unprocessed trauma and grief. Let me tell you beautiful wonderful unique person- it doesn't need to remain this way!

The mind can be complicated and often we need to navigate a lot of life's problems. Generally, we find clarity when we talk to someone who listens. It's because we are hearing ourselves verbalise what we are thinking and feeling. At Mindscape we support clients to a state of wellness by providing the fertile ground to grow our lives.
