Counselling in Mid North Coast, NSW

As a neuroaffirming clinician I take a client centred and strengths approach, respecting your unique neurotype and what works best for you! What might we talk about in therapy? Almost anything! Perhaps it's stress, anxiety or depression, your neurodivergent identity (ADHD/Autism), the assessment process (I can provide post diagnosis support/coaching for ADHD and Autism), the executive functions of the brain or substance use difficulties. Or maybe its parent support (raising neurodivergent children), strategies for time management, procrastination, emotion regulation or values identification...the list goes on!

The one constant we all share, regardless of our gender, wealth, race, location or religious beliefs is that we will spend our life in our body. This will also be one of the most confronting, challenging and potentially beautiful relationships we'll ever experience. Can we fully embrace our body? Can we come to terms with the social and cultural factors surrounding our body and, when the time comes to leave our body, will we do so with love and gratitude for how it helped us to connect with ourselves and others? Let's explore those questions together.

I hold postgraduate training in Psychology and Law from Harvard University, the University of Oxford, and Monash University; and specialist clinical training in Gestalt psychotherapy from the Relational Institute Australia. My approach integrates influences from Gestalt, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Circling, and vipassana meditation. I focus primarily on the cultivation of present moment awareness. Over time, awareness reinstates the body-mind's remarkable innate capacity to release energetic and physical blockages, stagnation and armouring. It then begins to return to its natural state of ease and wholeness.
