Counselling in Harrisdale, WA

Most people come to me purely and simply because they heard of me and they are ready to get better, to get their relationships, and personal lives, back on track. They want a gentle, fast and effective process that will get into the guts of the problem. A breakthrough that will clear away the relationship conflict, disappointment and resentment. That will clear away the anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc and other symptoms of unresolved trauma currently blighting their lives. I am an internationally trained and experienced Emotionally Focussed Couple therapist, and trauma therapist and have been working in this area for many years.

People can experience things in different ways. You might relate to some of these issues such as anxiety, PTSD, OCD or panic attacks. You may also relate to issues associated with family conflict, things like family separation which may include feelings of guilt, grief & loss, sadness, and fear, just to name a few. I truly believe that there is no ‘one fits all’ when it comes to therapy. My approach and style is working within a person-centred framework and I strongly value the importance of having a trusting relationship between therapist and client.

My role in therapy is to provide a space that is transparent, free of judgement and free of criticism to safely explore where you are, where you want to be, and whom you want to become. It is this sense of safety and trust that allows us to see ourselves clearly and allows us to break free from old subconscious habits and patterns making space to make conscious choices about our responses to triggers and situations. Many clients have described this experience as liberating and empowering, freeing them to grow and find meaning, purpose and fulfilment in life.

Mission: using a pragmatic, focused, and no bullshit approach with compassion and empathy to help you move forward, change your attitude, do something different, and make a commitment. I use my somatic training to increase your body awareness and emotional connection to self. We may find answers to questions or we may realize the questions no longer have meaning. Let’s alter the story and create change, movement, release, engagement, and find joy again. If you are desperately ready to change, at that tipping point, ready to do whatever it takes and not need to have it make sense or know the why, reach out.

Are you struggling with low self confidence or setting boundaries? Do you doubt yourself, feel guilty and find it hard to be assertive?

I am passionate about coming alongside you and helping you find solutions, healing and recovery. My goal is for you to come to a place where you are able to move forward, to gain clarity and reach a new level of better. I like to be client-centred and encouraging client autonomy as well as building a space for healthy collaboration and problem solving.

As a registered psychotherapist with a creative art therapy and pastoral background I work from a collaborative position of care, curiosity and empathy. I utilise a variety of approaches to match your specific goals and needs, facilitating understanding of your particular situation to overcome stuckness. One of the philosophies that resonates for me is, “The problem is the problem, the person is not the problem” (White & Epston, founders of Narrative therapy).

Finding a suitable therapist can be daunting and someone you connect with is important. I offer a safe space with no judgment to explore and gain mental health support & maximisation of well-being. Tailored to your needs and utilising creative process and expression, therapeutic art sessions can assist you to develop techniques and skills to achieve individualised goals. I bring extensive knowledge to our sessions, from general issues to challenging events. Specifically I understand the difficulties of trauma, addictions, domestic violence/abuse and LGBTQI + issues. Together we can work towards achievable goals and empowerment.

Trying to figure important things out by yourself is just too difficult. There are times we need the perspective that comes from someone who really listens and cares about you. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, relationships, workplace bullying, bereavement, spiritual growth or being a woman in a male dominated profession (including facing legal issues), I'm here for you. With over 25 years' experience I can help you navigate difficult circumstances while you build confidence, self-esteem, improve personal boundaries and resolve trauma. If you're a dog person who appreciates a good sense of humour, we'll get along famously.
