I provide online counselling and telehealth therapy for individuals and couples across Australia. This service offers a gentle grounding space to pause, reflect, and gain clarity —where challenges feel less overwhelming, new possibilities emerge, and the energy to move forward begins to grow. Our work together starts with truly understanding you: your story, your needs, your struggles, your hopes, and your dreams—as well as the barriers that may be preventing you from living the life you want or becoming the person you wish to be. I draw on a range of strengths-based, evidence-informed, and creative approaches, including Internal Family Systems, CBT-informed strategies, ACT principles, and person-centred counselling. These approaches help refresh old patterns, spark new perspectives, and gently open doors to change. This is a place of Becoming - whole, strong and authentically you. Online counselling Australia-wide for anxiety, trauma, stress, relationships and personal growth. I am registered with the Australian Counselling Association, have my Masters in Guidance and Counselling, and Degree in Social Science/Psychology

Something isn't working, and it's likely been repeating for a while. I work with individuals and couples experiencing conflict, disconnection, or patterns that don't seem to shift, no matter how many times you've tried to talk it through. Rather than focusing on surface issues, we look at what's actually happening beneath them, and begin building new ways of responding, together, in the moment. Sessions are available online across Australia, with in-person options near Byron Bay for those who prefer face-to-face support. The first step is a short 15-minute call. We'll talk through what's going on, and I'll guide you on what would genuinely help.

FAQs

Individual therapy sessions in Brisbane typically range from $130 to $250 per session, depending on the counsellor's qualifications, experience, and location across suburbs like Spring Hill, New Farm, and West End. If you have a Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate of up to $141.85 per session with a registered psychologist, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Counsellors and therapists who are not psychologists do not attract the Medicare rebate, but their fees are often lower. The length of sessions, frequency of appointments, and any specialised therapeutic approach can also affect the overall cost.
