NDIS support available, with afternoon, evening, and weekend appointments. Book a free 15-minute consultation.

Anxiety, meltdowns, or challenges at school or home? My personalised counselling helps clients feel understood, capable, and proud of their progress, using evidence-based techniques, mindfulness, LEGO® Based Therapy, and organisational neuroscience approaches to build confidence, resilience, and coping skills. You’ll see meaningful changes that reduce frustration and increase harmony at home.

I help build emotional and social skills, fostering confidence, resilience, and self-awareness. Sessions may include creative approaches such as vision boards, goal setting, career guidance and guided reflection in a safe, confidential space.
Over time, you'll feel more confident navigating life’s ups and downs - and you’ll have the roadmap to support them.
