You may be carrying the impact of trauma, relationship hurt or long-term emotional strain. Perhaps you’ve pushed through life’s challenges but now feel stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected. I often work with women recovering from trauma and DV, business owners and tradesmen under pressure, men in their 30s–50s navigating identity or relationship stress, and young men 14–25 struggling with emotions, direction or self-worth.

Kylie is particularly known for her down-to-earth, non-judgmental style. She works with adults whose confidence and sense of self have been shaken by a life change or by discovering their mind works differently. She helps them feel solid again. Life change may include illness, burnout, relationship strain, career transition, relocation, or adjusting to a diagnosis. Some people seek support when anxiety or low mood begins affecting their functioning. Others are exploring neurodivergence, such as ADHD or autism, as part of understanding long-standing patterns. Kylie tends to think differently and can offer unique perspectives.

Many arrive feeling stuck in survival mode, questioning themselves, and unsure who they are or what they need. At Mumshine, I help you gently untangle what is going on, understand your needs, and reduce the load in a way that feels realistic and supportive, without pressure to have it all figured out.

I work with teens (16+) and adults who feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck, or disconnected from themselves and their lives. Many of the people I support struggle with perfectionism, burnout, overthinking, self-criticism, people pleasing, or feeling “not good enough.” I also have a special interest in eating disorders, trauma, and neurodivergence. Therapy can be a space to slow down, better understand yourself, build emotional steadiness, and reconnect with the life you want to live.

Nearly all of us have challenges in life. Perhaps some of the most difficult for us to adjust to are those concerning our intimate relationships, and sexuality. Relationship problems and problems with sex are two of the most common issues that people bring to counselling with me... these aspects of life frequently result in much distress within each of us, and much conflict if you're in a relationship. Let's face it, it's not easy talking about relationship problems and sex when we're already feeling distressed.

Therapy for women who are carrying too much, eldest daughters, high-functioning women struggling with burnout, and identity healing. I work with women who are often the “strong one” or someone others rely on. Many feel emotionally overwhelmed, burnt out, or disconnected from themselves while still functioning highly in daily life. They may be navigating identity, cultural expectations, or people-pleasing patterns. In our work together, I create a safe, supportive space to explore your experiences, understand your patterns, and help you move toward feeling more grounded, clear, and connected to yourself.

I work with people who are carrying more than they can sort through alone including adolescents, adults, and couples navigating eating disorders, perinatal mental health, anxiety, mood, trauma, neurodiversity, life transitions, and workplace stress. My approach is warm and honest. I draw on a range of evidence-based therapies, shaped around what actually helps you, not a single framework applied to everyone. We work at a pace that feels manageable, because good therapy rarely follows a straight line. The goal isn't perfection, it's feeling more like yourself. Based in Subiaco, Perth, with telehealth available across Australia.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected or navigating change — whether you’re a young person finding your place, a woman juggling multiple roles, or someone simply needing space to breathe and make sense of things. Many of the people I work with are managing stress, identity shifts, neurodiversity, relationships, emotional wellbeing or that quiet sense that something isn’t quite right. Often, they’re not looking to be “fixed” — they want understanding, clarity and practical ways to feel more like themselves again.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realised.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
