Services
When faced with change and changing circumstances, there's a phase that often feels unpleasant, that is, the transition. The transition is the space in which we integrate, what has happened in our lives, with our desire to live in alignment to who we are and what is important to us. It is a place of healing. During this phase it can sometimes feel as if the barriers that you want and need to overcome are overwhelming, and we feel stuck. I have some good news, you can find beauty and enrichment in the transition! Based in Adelaide CBD, South Australia, services are provided in person or securely online.

Counselling
In my work with children, young people, families and individuals involve supporting them to identify what is working and not working in their lives. Through this process, I walk alongside you as you discover your own innate strengths and abilities while connecting deeply to your values and what's important to you. Walking together to move through the challenges in your life to a place of healing and wholeness.
My work experience includes the leadership, development and support of those working in the helping professions, with a particular mind to the effect of compassion fatigue and burnout and the importance of quality and practical self-care strategies.
My counselling sessions provide a safe space to rediscover your strengths, connect with your values, and navigate life’s challenges with clarity. Whether you're overcoming trauma, managing burnout, or working through addiction, I walk alongside you, helping you move from surviving to thriving.
