Languages Spoken:
I am a registered counsellor currently located in Hobart, Tasmania. I am registered with the Australian Counselling Association (Level 1) having completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling through the University of Southern Queensland. Prior to completing my counselling qualification, I trained as a Doula (professional pregnancy and birth support) supporting women and their families through the pregnancy, birth and post partum period. I have also worked as an educator in the maternity care sector alongside Midwives, Allied Health professionals, naturopaths, acupuncturists and yoga instructors.I have worked for several years with individuals and families experiencing complex mental health issues or experiencing significant life transitions and changes. I am currently providing counselling in aged care residential facilities across the Hobart region.I have exposure and experience to a variety of trauma, grief and loss and challenging life circumstances. I have particular interest in supporting families through the pregnancy and post natal period as I experienced my own journey with post natal depression and anxiety. I am passionate about supporting our kids to learn the skills they need to become resilient, compassionate, leaders and thinkers for our future. I have worked as a Kalm Kids facilitator and support children and youth in my practice.
