Is life different from how you expected it to be? Do you experience feelings of loss, overwhelm, or being judged at times? You are not alone. Everyone feels like this at some point in their lives. I have too, and have built a career on supporting people just like us to navigate the challenges.
Personally I have experienced pregnancy loss, post-natal depression, anxiety, depression and the joys and challenges of parenthood. I can walk with you on the journey of being a mother - a biological, step, adopted, foster, or a mother with a different name - across the lifespan.
I can work with you to develop a deeper level of understanding yourself, where you feel valued and the expert in your own life. I know women have unique physical and mental health needs in whatever stage they are in their lives. I also have a special interest in supporting carers whose children access the NDIS, and the mental and physical load this brings.
I work with you to feel valued and acknowledged as an expert in your own life. Some approaches I might use include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy to provide tailored support just for you.
No wait list.
No GP referral needed: my support modalities are flexible, I can offer a flexible number of sessions, I don't need to share your information and my fees are often less than the gap fee you would generally pay for therapy after a Medicare rebate.
I am able to offer GU Health and Doctors Health Funds rebates.
Self- and plan-managed NDIS clients welcome. My fee is the same as private paying clients.
Payment - Direct Debit/Electronic Funds Transfer. I also offer sliding scale benefits.
