You may feel overwhelmed by life struggles, painful losses or relationship issues. I work with you to acknowledge difficult and complex emotions and experiences, such as anger, anxiety, guilt and shame. Often people feel alone in the midst of losses and transitions - families, friends and communities aren't always able to provide solace and support. Sometimes a loss or change may feel unbearable. Being seen and heard by another person can create powerful potential for healing and change. I can also work with you on long-term family dynamics and relationship patterns that sometimes add to feelings of isolation.
I specialise in counselling through grief, anxiety, trauma, major life adjustments and transitions. Experience includes perinatal bereavement, sibling death and stages such as new parenthood, relationship breakdowns, migration or family estrangement. I offer individual and couples therapy and I trained in Relationships Australia's specialist couples course.
Taking a first step towards professional support is a big move and can seem scary, especially if you are feeling raw and vulnerable. I aim to create safety in the therapy room by listening to peoples' needs and exploring the process together. I am to gently build a rapport and relationship that respects a person's boundaries and tolerance for therapy.
