Come home to yourself, in every season.

If something has been weighing on you, or you simply sense it’s time for change, that’s reason enough. You don’t need to be in crisis or have the right words. Our free 15-minute call is an easy way to see how it feels.

Holistic counselling looks at the whole of you: thoughts, emotions, body, intuition, cycles, relationships and sense of meaning. Rather than focusing simply on the cognitive experience, we explore how everything connects: mind, body and heart.

You don’t need a connection to spirituality to benefit from these sessions. All beliefs, religions and cultures are warmly welcomed and respected.

Women often come to me for matrescence and the identity shifts of motherhood, postnatal overwhelm and anxiety, processing a birth experience, grief and loss, burnout, relationship changes, and reconnecting with their body and sense of self.

I’m a qualified holistic counsellor, not a psychologist or psychiatrist. I don’t diagnose or prescribe. Counselling is a collaborative, supportive space to explore what you’re carrying. If you need a diagnosis, medication or clinical treatment, I’m happy to refer, or work alongside your GP or psychologist.

We’ll start slowly and hold space for whatever is alive in you that day. I’ll ask what you’d like to feel more of, explain how I work, and we’ll organically get a sense of where to begin. You share only what feels right.

I might guide you in a meditation to help regulate your nervous system and soften into the space. We might sit on the ground or on a chair, and sometimes you might feel like breathing or moving rather than talking. However you feel most at ease.

Somatic work is always invitational: noticing your breath, sensations or posture, usually while seated. Nothing is ever required, and you can always say no or simply talk.

Sessions are 60 minutes. Everyone is different, but many women find a block of around 6–8 sessions, weekly or fortnightly, gives real space for change, which is why I offer 5- and 8-session packages. We’ll check in together as we go.

I see women in person on the Central Coast and in the Blue Mountains, NSW, and online anywhere in Australia via a secure, private video platform.

Yes. Babies in arms are always welcome, in person or online.

Matrescence is the transition of becoming a mother, a change as profound as adolescence that touches your body, identity, relationships and values. It’s normal for it to feel disorienting, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

You’ll find session fees in the pricing section. Holistic counselling isn’t covered by Medicare, and private health rebates vary between funds, so it’s worth checking with yours.

Yes. Each month a number of supported sessions are funded by local businesses for women on a low income. Find out more or simply get in touch. Your request is always confidential.

Yes. Everything you share is confidential, within the legal and ethical limits we’ll talk through together in your first session.

That’s completely okay, and it’s why we begin with a free call. Feeling safe with your counsellor matters most. If I’m not the right person, I’ll gladly suggest others who might be.

I ask for 24 hours’ notice to reschedule or cancel, so the time can be offered to someone else.

Use any “Book a session” button to choose a time online, or send me a message and I’ll get back to you within a day or two.
