Whether you’re in the process of dismantling the old, building the new, or navigating the in-between, I can help
Navigating the changing seasons
We are in a massive collective transition on the planet right now. Just one of our collective challenges – ecological degradation, climate change, division, racism, patriarchy, colonialism, the mental health crisis – is a mountainous undertaking on its own. And here we find ourselves, facing all these challenges simultaneously.
Eco anxiety, climate anxiety and solastalgia (distress from witnessing ecological change) are not pathologies. They are appropriate responses to our ecological challenges.
If you are someone who tends to think about or work with any of these issues… of course you might feel overwhelmed or scared!
Creating physical and psychological environments of safety is important to me. Because I believe that we can relax when we feel safe. And when we feel safe and relaxed we can move through our deepest pains to a place where we can potentially experience the beauty of the human experience.
All sessions are online only at present
I’m a gestalt-trained somatic therapist and personal coach based in the Byron Bay area. I also provide online therapy to people across Australia, New Zealand, Asia and Europe.
The way I work is strongly informed by a nature-based philosophy, which has been shaped from a lifelong love of the natural world around me. I’m an advocate of the Earth and a child of the Earth and I believe that being ‘grown up’ doesn’t have to mean losing touch with the awe and wonder that nature inspires in us.
I also see how important it is to support ourselves into our adult selves so we can navigate this changing world. Many of us feel or act as though we’re a little child in a big person’s body. Living from your adult self and learning to understand the difference can be life changing.
Supporting you to find your way of being an embodied adult in the world is something I’m passionate about.
I’m a big believer in each person finding the right support for them, and offer a free, no-obligation consult (15 mins) so that we can chat and feel out if we’re a good fit. You’re welcome to take advantage of this at a time that suits you.
What I bring
I bring 15 years of learning and experience in facilitating human wholeness. In working with me you can avail of individual in-person and online counselling sessions and facilitated group processes (in-person and online). I am a somatic gestalt therapist, a NARM informed therapist, a Path Retreats facilitator, a long-distance hiker, a writer and an advocate for the most vulnerable in our world.
I moved my life across the planet and made the dramatic career change from wind & solar engineering to psychotherapy. So navigating transition is familiar to me.
I’ve worked with people like you from all walks of life and have come to see that kindness, acceptance, care and support will always carry people through.
