Family Therapy Counselling in Canberra, ACT

With more than 22 years in the helping professions in the UK and Australia, in various health, education; mental health areas across the lifespan, I'm able to support people with a wide range of presenting issues to support people navigating life's challenges. It can feel like no one gets it sometimes, even those closest to you. Wanting someone to listen to you who really gets it, I truly do and I know how to support you. I provide an opportunity to explore what you're experiencing with compassion focused on guiding you towards health and wellbeing.

I help couples who want to get to 'the next stage' of their relationship and deepen their connection, but are stuck in problem territory, unable to get past the differences. I also help late 20's/early 30's singles who are disillusioned with dating and want to give more of a sh%t about themselves to live the fullest life . People come to me because they're sick of trying but not getting anywhere, exhausted, frustrated, anxious and sad. I've been in the field for 20+ years and began my counselling private practice 'Unveiled Stories' in 2015. I tend to fit best with folks who don't fit the mould (whether by their choice or design).

Have you suffered trauma in your past? Do you feel triggered and can't quite understand why? Excessive anger, paralyzing fear, feelings of emptiness, constant anxiety, sense of powerlessness, lingering sadness. They are most likely related to repressed feelings and they can leave a trail of unconscious destruction behind. What if you take charge? What if you decide it is time to finally bring those feelings to the surface and face them? That's called integration. It's when you get to know and eventually accept yourself. The fact you are reading this now shows you are ready to take that step. And I will be right there with you.
