I work with neurodivergent young people and adults who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck or exhausted from trying to keep up. You may be navigating ADHD or autism, exploring whether neurodivergence explains some of your experiences, struggling with relationships, identity or change, or simply feeling that life has become harder to manage. My approach is warm, practical and neurodiversity-affirming. Together, we can make sense of what’s happening and find ways forward that work for you—not ways to make you fit someone else’s expectations.
I bring extensive experience working with adolescents, young people and families, alongside a trauma-informed, person-centred approach. I support people with overwhelm, burnout, relationships, boundaries, identity, life transitions and emotional regulation. I offer online counselling Australia-wide and walk-and-talk sessions on the Mornington Peninsula.
I know what it’s like when life doesn’t go to plan, when things feel messy, uncertain or overwhelming. I’ve had my own twists and turns too, and they’ve shaped how I listen, connect and support others. I don’t have all the answers, but I bring warmth, honesty and genuine understanding. If you’re ready, I’d love to hear from you.
