Personal Psychotherapy & Coaching

Let's co-create change that sticks with blended psychotherapy, counselling and coaching.

Clarity in chaos.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, lost or stuck on repeat? I'm here to tell you you're not broken – you're human. The world is messy and complex, and so are you and I. But together, we can find clarity in all the chaos.

Feeling stuck?

Perhaps you are in constant conflict or unable to break destructive patterns. Perhaps you’re facing distress or depression. Perhaps past trauma makes you feel anxious or isolated. Or perhaps you can't put your finger on it, but know something isn’t right.

Let's connect!

If you are ready to dig deep, I'm here to work with you to explore the past and present, helping you move into a future of strength, presence and purpose. It won't always be easy. But it's almost always worth the time, energy and investment.

How we work together

Personal Psychotherapy & Coaching

Our psychotherapy and coaching sessions are highly collaborative and customised to your needs, with weekly, fortnightly or monthly sessions available. You are not locked into any routine, payment or contract. I only ask that you give me at least 48 hours notice if you wish to cancel a scheduled session.

After your initial introductory call, we can collaborate at a pace and rhythm that suits you. Most clients start with a block of 12 weekly sessions to strike a balance between reflection, becoming present and preparing for a better future; but you are in control of our exploration together at all times.

Steps in Our Process

  1. 15-minute introductory call
    A complimentary, 15-minute introductory call to check our chemistry and determine if my integrated approach is the right fit to support your personal growth journey.

  2. 6 to 12 weekly sessions
    Most people start with 6 to 12 flexible weekly sessions, blending psychotherapy and coaching to deeply reflect on your past and how it shapes your present.

  3. Ongoing support
    As life changes, so does our purpose. Our ongoing work together provides a trusted, safe space of connection and freedom as you navigate your next chapter.

Personal Psychotherapy and Coaching FAQ

What does ongoing psychotherapy and coaching support look like?

  • As life changes, so does our purpose, and you may find yourself in need of a trusted space as you transition into your next phase of life, love and work.
  • After all, lasting change takes time. And although many clients see changes in their lives following an initial block of 12 weekly sessions, most stick around to collaborate over a longer period.
  • Whatever your timeline looks like, I'm here to support you on your terms. And our ongoing work together remains a safe space of connection, freedom and choice, without any ongoing commitment or contractual obligation.

How do our psychotherapy and coaching sessions work?

  • I'm not going to sugarcoat this – life is hard. Hardships manifest in different ways for all of us; but whatever your individual experiences are, your needs and feelings are valid.
  • Bringing the best parts of psychotherapy and coaching together, I work with diverse humans from all walks of life – yep, that means people just like you – to help you uncover your unique strengths and move towards a future that's fulfilling, sustainable and meaningful.

How long do I have to wait to see you?

Once you are on my waitlist, the wait time to see me is hard to get exact. We will discuss this on our introductory call. The wait could be anywhere between 2 to 6 months, but this could be much shorter or longer depending on a number of factors.

Are our sessions in person or online?

All of my sessions for personal psychotherapy & coaching are online using Zoom. In-person conversations are available upon request for executive & high performance leadership coaching programs.

I feel stuck and want help, but isn't therapy for the 'messed up' or the broken?

Definitely not! Many people could benefit from a collaborative, reflective conversation with another human being with no judgement. A misconception I hear a lot is people thinking, "If I'm not struggling at a 10/10, I don't deserve a conversation with a therapist". This is not at all true.

  • You do not need to be intensely suffering to reach out for help. Some of my clients begin our conversations from a place of being well and want to explore how to make their lives even better.

I need a quick solution to my problem. Can you give me that?

I work with my clients over a longer period of time towards fundamental and sustainable change. I do not offer the type of therapy or support that is short-term or which is targeted towards symptomatic relief or surface-level behavioural change.

I need someone to make me accountable. Can you help me with that?

I support people towards self-accountability. If you are searching for someone to hold you accountable, that's not what I do. But I do work collaboratively to help people navigate to self-ownership and internally energised lives that feel resilient and sustainable from the inside out.

What are the differences between psychotherapy and psychology?

This is a challenging question to answer because there are plenty of psychologists who practice like psychotherapists and many psychotherapists who practice like psychologists – pretty confusing right? However, there is much crossover between the two roles and the skills, experiences and tools we use. At the risk of oversimplifying a lot of complexity I often describe the key differences as follows:

  • Psychologists: Might start with our behaviour first, then support us to realise, connect and change parts of our identity, life story and meaning-making in the world.
  • Psychotherapists: Often start with parts of our identity first, our life story and how we create meaning in the world which in time affects and changes our behaviour.

Can I use my Mental Health Care Plan from my GP or claim through my private health insurer to cover the costs of our session together?

No. Mental Health Care Plans fund sessions with psychologists and social workers, but as a registered Psychotherapist, my sessions are not covered by Mental Health Care plans or Medicare payments.

I am in crisis and urgently need to see someone. Can you help?

Unfortunately, I do not offer crisis support. If you have challenges with active addictions, severe suicidality, personality disorders or ongoing psychosis, please explore and connect with the right support.
