I come to the therapeutic space with a deep curiosity about life and the people I meet there, their stories, their lives, their relationships with others and most importantly with themselves. I join with you and guide you to discover the more hidden parts of yourself that you haven’t yet explored or have only touched on.
Perhaps there’s a difficult or recurring issue from your personal or professional life that you would like to address. It could be grief, loss, depression, anxiety, addiction, dissociation, historical or current trauma, life transition, identity or relationship issues, or even existential questions and concerns.

For those who have felt out of place in traditional talk therapy, I offer a safe, relational space to unravel what you’ve been carrying and finally feel at home in your own body. Bridging neuroscience, somatic wisdom, and lived experience to help you transition from 'getting through the day' to true, presence-based healing.
Move beyond survival mode, which may appear as pushing through exhaustion or feeling highly stressed and anxious all the time, and into the depth of living an embodied life with support that honours where you’ve been and who you are becoming.

Sometimes we find ourselves not feeling the way we think we should. That might be due to our genetics, upbringing, a life event, or something else entirely. Whatever the reason, my role is to listen, understand, and support you.
My approach is warm, supportive, and non-judgemental. Together we’ll look at what’s getting in the way of your wellbeing and come up with realistic ways to move forward.
Your mental health is just one part of overall wellbeing — emotional, physical, spiritual, and social areas are all interconnected, and at Mind Over Matters, we acknowledge that connection.

I am an authentic and bubbly French-Australian human who made the decision to become a counsellor after my own lived experiences of mental and physical health struggles. Born in rural France, where none ever talked about mental health, I began my adult life as a high-achieving corporate professional who believed the only approach to life’s problems was to “get on with it” and just find a way to keep going. Until I realised this didn’t actually work effectively or wholeheartedly and discovered that mental health is a real, normal, valid part of being a human. I now walk the talk and value my physical, mental, emotional health.

You’re the strong one. High-functioning, self-aware, always showing up for others — but quietly battling burnout, self-doubt, and anxious relationships. You crave boundaries, clarity, and deeper self-trust. You want to stop spiraling in your head and start feeling safe in your body and relationships. You're not broken — you're exhausted from surviving. You want to feel steady, empowered, and finally free of patterns that no longer serve you — in love, work, and within yourself.

Hi! I’m Rhiannon, and I work with folks wanting to understands how early experiences shape the way we move through the world. You might be a person who's spent years prioritising everyone else's needs while yours went unmet. Perhaps you struggle to trust your own judgment, find yourself constantly scanning for signs that someone's upset with you, or feel guilty whenever you try to set a boundary. Any of these experience could show up as body tension, disconnection, or that familiar knot in your stomach when conflict arises.

Every person I work with is treated with dignity, respect and compassion. This means looking beyond people's current condition, situation or diagnosis to also consider their broader life-history, including how current symptoms may have been shaped by early life experiences. I believe that everybody, no matter how complex or challenging their situation, circumstances or life experiences, when provided the right support has within themselves vast resources for self-understanding and resilience.
