It was a long time ago and it no longer affects me, right? Not necessarily! When we experience systematic childhood trauma we create strong- and unconscious- survival mechanisms that keep signalling danger, even when there is none. This is what we call triggers. These triggers appear in your life in many ways. We also look for familiar situations where the trauma is repeated looking for control of the situation and integration. So the past is much more than the past. Going deep inside yourself in a safe, non judgmental space and explore who you are and who you no longer have to be will bring you life long benefits.

Hi, I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor (PACFA) and Yoga and Meditation teacher. I specialise in supporting high achievers experiencing stress, overwhelm, anxiety, burnout, loss, and career and life transitions. I understand the unique demands of corporate life; I've been there. My previous career was in finance, and projects. And I'm a human, like you; I've suffered losses and challenges, and navigated transitions. My lived experience of caring for a terminally ill parent, parenting children with life threatening conditions, managing health challenges and fostering important relationships compliments my formal therapy training.

Seeking therapy is never too early or too late in life. Most of us develop skepticism and may avoid therapy. In the majority of cases, however, you will find that through therapy you can improve your life and relationships, as well as control and comprehend your anxiety. You will be able to alter unhealthy coping mechanisms, such as substance abuse and sexual validation. There is no requirement to return, but there will always be a genuine desire to assist you with your issues.

I work with individuals & couples experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, identity struggles, and relationship problems. I hold the view that these struggles often run deep, rooted in self-worth, early attachments, major life changes, or in grief—whether from the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or even a dream that was never realised. I have a particular interest in working with those who feel in some way different or out of place —whether by race, gender, sexuality, migration, or other diverse life experiences. I believe each person’s story is uniquely their own, and I tailor my approach to honour that individuality.
