My counselling practice is a place where you will be truly seen, known, and accepted.

Whether you are navigating trauma, chronic illness, chronic pain, or emotional

distress, I provide a safe, supportive environment to explore your experiences and

feelings.

For those living with the effects of trauma, such as PTSD, I understand how it can feel like

your mind and body are stuck in survival mode—constantly on edge, battling flashbacks, or

struggling with feelings of shame and disconnection. Using evidence-based approaches like

Internal Family Systems and Deep Brain Reorienting, I will help you gently reconnect with

yourself, addressing the imprints of trauma on your body, brain and emotions to foster calm

and healing.

If you are managing a chronic condition or ongoing pain, I bring both lived experience and

specialised training to help you navigate the complex emotional and physical toll these

challenges bring. I understand the frustration, grief, and isolation they can cause. Together,

we will work to reclaim a sense of control, hope, and connection while honouring your

strength and resilience.

In my practice, I recognise that every part of you has value—even the parts that may feel

overwhelming or unhelpful right now. Together, we will cultivate curiosity, kindness, and

empowerment as we explore your story. I draw on approaches such as Internal Family

Systems, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and Deep Brain Reorienting to support your

mind and body in finding balance and relief.

​

I have worked both in the hospital system and privately with adults facing a range of

challenges, including trauma, PTSD, chronic illness, and chronic pain. Many of my clients

have shared that I was the first person to truly listen to their story, and I feel deeply honoured

to hold space for those who may feel unseen or unheard.

Experience

I have extensive experience over the last 15 years working with adults & couples in private practice.  I weave many modalities through my practice including western and eastern philosophies.  I specialise in Internal Family Systems Therapy and have completed Level 2  and advanced trainings.  I'm an eternal learner and love to continually update my knowledge and skills for my profession and personally.  We all journey, we all face hardship, we all have loss, heartbreak, pain, hurt, regret, sadness, anger, suffering, dreams, desires. Wherever you are on your journey, I look forward to meeting you there. 

Supervision

I currently have openings for new IFS Supervision clients, offering both individual and group supervision. Whether you are a Counselor new to IFS Therapy or a seasoned professional, I welcome the opportunity to accompany you on your journey of growth and development.

 

Supervision is more than a professional necessity; it is a partnership aimed at nurturing your evolution both as a counselor and as an individual. 

 

I am committed to providing guidance that extends you personally and professionally. This journey is about empowering you to comprehend your internal dynamics, allowing you to navigate challenges with clarity and efficacy. Education is a cornerstone of our collaboration, ensuring you not only receive support but also gain valuable insights that will shape your counseling practice.​​​
