I am a specialist grief and bereavement counsellor. I support people to adapt to a significant change in their life following someone close dying. If you are experiencing grief and feel confused, stuck or overwhelmed reach out. Change can occur with empathic listening and reflective inquiry.
Medicare Rebates apply with a GP referral.
If you hold a white or gold card, sessions are available without cost with a GP referral under the DVA program.
At present, this practice does not provide autism specific services, and individuals with ASD may benefit from seeking support from practitioners with dedicated expertise.
As specialist grief counsellor, I have a depth and breadth of knowledge that enables me to be with you through the pain and struggle around someone dying. I coach people to build coping skills, address unresolved issues, and find a new kind of strength. I draw on my yoga and mindfulness qualifications to support people to adapt to their grief.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss how I may be able to assist. My goal is to assist you in building a sense of confidence and reclaiming your personal well-being and optimism about the future. For concerns that do not fit with my expertise, I recommend you speak with your doctor or another practitioner.
