So many of us go through life with the invisible pain of not feeling “enough.” It can show up in our relationship with food and our bodies, in the pressure of parenting, in being "highly sensitive" or the vulnerable and tender season of postpartum life. Sometimes it feels like no matter what we do, it’s never quite good enough. This is the space where I work. I support women, parents, and young people Australia wide who feel alone and tired of battling their bodies, doubting their worth, or feeling overwhelmed by the weight of expectations or unbearable thoughts and feelings, whilst trying to hold it all in. I see your tears.
Together through online therapy, we gently untangle the stories that keep you stuck — the eating disorder, the body shame, the guilt in motherhood and the sensitivities that others don't understand— and begin to create new ways of relating to yourself. I approach therapy with not just my professional knowledge but also my personal experience.
My role is not to diagnose or judge, but to sit beside you as you find your way back to connection: with your body, with your children, with the people you love, and most importantly, with yourself. Therapy with me is about building a kinder, more compassionate relationship with who you are. If this sounds like you, hit the email me button and let's chat.

Therapy happens at your pace. We spend as much time as needed developing trust and safety, and you are fully in control over what we talk about and when that happens. I provide a non-judgemental, non-pathologising space where you can be understood on a deeply human level. Together, we find the path and then gently travel it.

I don't believe there is a one size fits all approach to therapy. I tend to focus on the needs expressed during our sessions and respond directly to them, drawing from many different types of therapies and my professional experience. We adapt and change as needed. I focus heavily on building a safe relationship, as this is how true healing occurs, together.
