Real support,
for real life

Australia wide therapy that sees the whole you

For anyone navigating the complexities of life,
ready to hold space for themselves

Approach

Human-first & holistic

I work with people, not problems. You are a whole person - mind, body, and spirit - with your own story, values, and capacity for growth. Together, we explore how to align your inner world with the life you want to lead.

Depathologising & trauma informed

Your experiences, identity, and environment shape how you move through the world. My practice is grounded in deep respect for how systems, trauma, and culture intersect with mental health. Healing is less about “fixing” you, and more about reclaiming your power.

Collaborative & client centred

You are the expert on your life. I bring tools, insight, and presence. You bring your story and we will find what works for you.

 FAQs

  • I provide online counselling via telehealth and can see anyone in Australia.

  • A 60 minute 1:1 counselling session is $120 on weekdays and weekends. Counselling is not currently covered by Medicare, and mental health care plans cannot be used.

  • I have availability on weekdays, weekends and after hours. I am currently open to new people.

  • There are no expectations for how often we meet, or how long we work together. Some people have one-off sessions, others twice a month, some a few times a year. It is up to you, your situation and circumstances, and we can check-in on this together.

I became a counsellor in 2019, driven by both professional passion and personal experience. I’ve supported people in diverse settings - including disability, youth, AOD (alcohol and other drugs), aged care, refugee support and within the justice system. My foundation is in person-centred therapy, and I integrate elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Narrative Therapy and other evidence based modalities. I’m a registered member of PACFA and am committed to ethical, inclusive and evolving practice.

More than any training, it’s my lived experience that shapes how I show up. I know the courage it takes to sit with someone and be real. My role is to meet you there, with curiosity and no judgment.

I primarily work with LGBTQIA+ adults and professionals/helpers/carers, but my practice is open to anyone seeking thoughtful and compassionate support.

Common areas of exploration are:
- depression and anxiety
- unpacking internalised narratives, self-doubt, self-worth
- grief, loss, feeling stuck
- relationship dynamics and boundaries
- overwork, burnout, stress, emotional overwhelm
- chronic illness, pain, fatigue
- identity, sexuality, gender
- life transitions and change

I’m not here to tell you what to do, but to help you get unstuck, get clear on what matters, and move toward a life that feels like yours.
