I support people struggling with grief, alcohol dependency and other avoidant behaviours, relationship challenges, career and fulfilment worries, and deep-seated self-worth and self-esteem issues. I help my clients break free from unhealthy coping mechanisms—whether it’s alcohol, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or negative thought patterns—and build emotional resilience, confidence, and a life they truly love.
I am a registered counsellor, This Naked Mind and Grey Area Drinking Master Coach, Intuitive Eating Counsellor and co-host of the Not Drinking (Alcohol) Today podcast, and host of the De-Stress for Success podcast. I adhere to the Australian Counselling Association's professional code of conduct, ensuring my clients receive ethical, high-quality care.
I support clients via private zoom sessions, group challenges and online self-guided programs. I am passionate about helping men and women build their emotional muscle so that they can deal with life’s stresses as they inevitably come with greater resilience, drawing on their inner strength and resources. I also help people drink mindfully or none at all.
