 As a trauma-informed counsellor with lived experience, I offer a space where women who feel stretched thin, burned out, or quietly overwhelmed can begin to soften — and return to themselves.


I intimately understand the emotional weight of depletion — the toll that chronic stress, illness, mental health challenges, and grief can leave on the nervous system and sense of self. My work is grounded in compassion, intuition, and deep presence. Together, we listen for what your body and heart have been holding, and gently tend to what’s ready to heal.


This is not about rushing transformation — it’s about honouring your pace, restoring your energy, and walking with you as you remember the steadiness within. My intention is to hold a safe, attuned space where clarity can rise, nervous system safety can grow, and a more aligned life can gently unfold.

Frequently Asked Questions

 A soft place to land for the curious, cautious, and quietly hopeful ~ feel free to reach out with any questions—if you can’t find the answers here, I’m happy to help!

 Both counsellors and psychologists offer valuable emotional support, but their approaches and training pathways differ. As a counsellor, I provide trauma-informed, nervous system-aware support that is deeply relational, embodied, and grounded in lived experience. I walk alongside you with presence and care — not as someone to “fix” you, but to help you feel safe enough to heal in your own time.


Psychologists often have a clinical or diagnostic focus, with training in assessments, mental health conditions, and treatment planning that may include cognitive behavioural therapy and formal diagnoses.


My counselling approach is holistic and deeply relational. We weave together nervous system education, somatic practices, and existential-based inquiry to help you reconnect with your own wisdom.


If your needs fall outside my scope, I’ll support you in finding the right mental health professional through a warm referral.


 What can I expect during my first counselling session?
You’ll be welcomed into a calm, compassionate space where you don’t need to explain everything at once. We begin slowly—getting to know you, your story, and how your nervous system is holding it all. Together, we’ll co-create a gentle plan that honours your needs, preferences, and energy.


How long does each session last?
Sessions are typically 60 minutes, depending on what feels most supportive. Longer sessions are available if you prefer a slower pace or deeper integration.


How many sessions will I need?
That depends on your goals and needs. Some clients come for a few sessions during a life transition or burnout, while others choose long-term support. We check in regularly to ensure the rhythm feels aligned.


What types of issues can counselling help with?
I support women navigating burnout, grief, chronic illness, nervous system overwhelm, trauma, religious/spiritual deconstruction, identity shifts, and relational patterns. I also specialise in cult recovery, existential grief, and embodied healing for high-achieving women who feel quietly depleted.


Do you offer online or virtual sessions?
Yes. Counselling is offered both in-person (Gawler, SA) and via secure Telehealth sessions. You’re welcome to show up in your comfiest clothes, tea in hand.


Is what I discuss in therapy confidential?
Absolutely. Everything you share is held with the highest respect, privacy, and care—within the ethical guidelines of the counselling profession.


Do you accept insurance or provide rebates?
Currently, I do not offer Medicare rebates. However, I’m a registered provider for NDIS (Self & Plan-Managed) and offer sliding scale options and payment plans for select offerings.


How do I book a session?
You can reach out via my contact form, or book a free clarity call to explore whether this space is right for you.


Do you offer NDIS-funded counselling?
Yes — I offer counselling for self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants. Sessions are trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and tailored to your goals and capacity. Whether you're seeking support with emotional regulation, identity, burnout, grief, or nervous system overwhelm — you're welcome here.


How do I know if this counselling fits within my NDIS plan?
NDIS sessions are typically funded under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living. If you're unsure, I can help guide you or liaise with your support coordinator.


 No need for a Mental Health Care Plan, book in today on 0439 995 730!

Sessions are available face to face in Gawler, by phone or zoom.

​


 Not at all. You simply need openness and curiosity. I meet you exactly where you’re at, integrating what you want—whether it’s inquiry-based journaling, gentle movement, or insight from your human design and nervous system to support your unfolding journey.


 My work integrates three strands: therapeutic reflection, somatic (body-based) nervous system awareness, and intuitive attunement. It’s not about talking at your problems—but building felt safety in your body so transformation can emerge naturally and gently from within.


Yes—absolutely. Your sessions are private and held with professional integrity. We honour sensitivity, trust, and emotional safety in every conversation.


 Yes — I’ve walked this path myself.
I’ve experienced deep physical and emotional burnout, and I know how disorienting and depleting it can feel. In our work together, we’ll gently use polyvagal-informed methods to support your nervous system, restore your energy, and help you come back to yourself — slowly, steadily, and in a way that truly honours your capacity. 


 Please give 24+ hours notice if you need to reschedule.


 Sessions are offered in person (Gawler, SA) or via a telehealth video call—whatever feels safest and most spacious for you. 


 I am a Specialist Counsellor and do not provide services under Medicare, including GP Mental Health Care Plans. 


 Yes. I ask bookings to be paid for 24hours prior to attending your appointment. You can cancel up to 24hours prior with no charge.   It allows space for someone else and keeps our rhythm gentle but held with care.  

 

I know that sometimes things come up unexpectedly. However, in honouring the depth, energy, and preparation I bring to each session, I kindly ask for 24 hours’ notice for any changes or cancellations.


If late cancellations become a pattern, I may need to gently introduce my cancellation policy — where the full session fee will apply. This helps me continue holding this work with integrity, attunement, and care for all the women I support.


Thank you for understanding and respecting the energetic container we co-create together.
