Personal Psychotherapy & Coaching

Let’s co-create lasting change with blended psychotherapy, counselling and coaching

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 work towards clarity through the chaos.

If you’re ready to dig deep with me, then 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 it.

Ready to make a change? Read more about my blended psychotherapy and coaching sessions below, or connect with me for 15-minutes to chat through your needs (with no charge and no pressure – promise).

Perhaps you find yourself in constant conflict with family, friends or colleagues, or unable to break destructive patterns. Perhaps you’re facing distress, depression or a crisis of confidence. Perhaps you have past trauma that makes you feel anxious or isolated. Or perhaps you’re simply struggling to put your finger on what exactly is going on (but in your heart, you know something isn’t right).

Personal psychotherapy and coaching sessions

Weekly, fortnightly or monthly sessions | No lock-in commitment or upfront payment

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 do our psychotherapy and coaching sessions work?

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.

However you choose to work, our time together will look a lot like this…

- A no-charge, 15 minute introductory call to check our chemistry and see if I am the right fit to support you.

- A paid introductory session before choosing how and when you want to proceed (if at all). Most of the time people see me as a start for 12 weekly sessions (this is flexible).

- All sessions are held online via Zoom so you can work with an environment and schedule that makes you feel comfortable.

- A non-judgemental safe and confidential space to be seen, heard and valued.

- Collaborative sessions that reflect on your past experiences and how they show up in your present.

- Use of science-backed psychotherapy and coaching tools tailored to your unique needs.

- Co-creation of a framework for change to allow you to activate a purposeful future.

- No formal commitment to continue other than a requirement of 48 hours notice for cancellation before a scheduled session.

- Rates are dependent on your income, see below for more detail.

If you’re ready to move towards clarity and contentment in work, life and love, then I’d love to help you navigate that journey. How about we connect for 15 minutes to see how we gel and go from there?

Ongoing psychotherapy and coaching support

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.

If you’re a previous client who’s ready to reconnect for the next step then I look forward to continuing our collaborative journey. Contact me to schedule your next session.

Start your journey with a free 15 minute chat.

This is a big deal. And in order for you to get the best from our work together, it’s really important that we’re a great fit.

That’s why I invite you to book a free 15-minute intro call with me, with absolutely no obligation to proceed.

  • Once you are on my waitlist, the wait time to see me is between 4 and 8 weeks, but this could be much shorter or longer depending on a number of factors.

  • All of my sessions for personal psychotherapy & coaching are online using Zoom. In-person conversations are available only for executive & team coaching programs.

  • 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. Some psychotherapists might be covered by private health insurance however I am not.

  • 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.

    I support my clients by combining the best parts of psychotherapy and coaching so we can reflect on the past, become present to your current experiences and envision what the future could look like as you start activating it.

  • 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.

  • 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 just on the surface behavioural change. This is about fully exploring yourself in the world, building the capacity to take ownership of your challenges and discovering your personal capacity to make your life possible.

  • 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.
