I am based in the Port Stephens area and work with clients across Australia via Zoom. I have experience working with trauma, addiction, codependency and a wide range of mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Clients come to me with issues around self harm, suicidality and relationship concerns. I use a range of therapies to offer a unique experience. Not every space feels right and at times it is hard to open up in a way that actually helps. I offer a space where you can feel met and where you can start to make sense of what is keeping you stuck.
I offer individual counselling and will help you to explore what is going on for you. I work with you and together we take our time to understand what you are feeling and what is underneath it all. Past experience don't always stay in the past. They can shape how you feel and react today. We will work safely to uncover what is happening for you.
The patterns you're in didn't come from nowhere. We will come to understand them. We will build on our therapeutic relationship, because the connection between us is part of the work. There is no real quick fix, but with the right support things can move in a different direction for you. Trust in the connection we build and set the pace for change to happen.
