Hi, I'm Catherine. I believe our struggles aren't signs that we're broken—they're signs that our nervous system has been trying to protect us. Whether you're navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, self-doubt or painful relationship patterns, I'll help you understand the unconscious beliefs and protective strategies keeping you stuck. Through compassionate, evidence-informed therapy and nervous system healing, we'll gently create lasting change from the inside out, so you can stop surviving and start living from a place of self-trust and emotional freedom.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, grief, trauma or painful relationship patterns, I'll help you uncover the unconscious beliefs and nervous system responses driving them. Together we'll create lasting change—not just by talking about your experiences, but by helping your mind and body heal together.
You're not broken. Your nervous system has been trying to protect you. Together we'll gently uncover the patterns beneath your anxiety, grief, trauma or relationship struggles, so you can stop surviving and start feeling like yourself again. Book for a complimentary discovery call to see if I am a good fit for walking this journey with you.

Utilising mind-body connect therapies like EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique), I go beyond talk therapy to address and shift anxiety, trauma, PTSD, self esteem issues and depression by rewiring beliefs and creating lasting changes. Most of my client experience a transformative lifting of symptoms within a couple of session which are long lasting.

Once you feel comfortable and safe with me, I like to use energy psychology tools such as EFT tapping in most sessions because it addresses emotional drainage, anxiety and feeling on edge effectively. Clients can expect can expect guided tapping exercises and personalised strategies to promote emotional regulation, reduce stress and leave you feeling more calm and centred.
