I grew up sailing around the world and travelled for over 29 years before returning back to Australia. With lots of adventures and life experiences I have always appreciated the opportunity that I had growing up, to meet people from all walks of life and the understanding that I learnt from meeting them all. I have unofficially yet very naturally been counselling friends, clients and work colleagues for many years and I enjoyed working with disengaged youth for about a year. Having experienced grief and the loss of many loved ones in my life and from working as a funeral director, one of the areas that I specialise in is grief counselling. People have always come to me for straight up, direct, honest support and feedback for a variety of reasons and I have loved supporting people with getting their life back on track. Inspired by these experiences, and wanting to serve the broader community, I chose to develop my counselling skills by studying for a Diploma of Counselling, and graduated in early 2021.I am now offering formal counselling sessions online or in person near Lismore or Sawtell, Northern NSW.What happens in a counselling session? In your counselling sessions, I will support you to come to your own answers, expand your own awareness and understanding and just let you talk about whatever you are ready to look at with no judgement or expectation. The session is all about you and we can have a chat to work out what your goals are and what you would like to work on.Sometimes we just need to talk and as we do, we get a clear sense of what is next and I love when that happens. If you have any questions, or would like to schedule a session, please get in touch today.
