Welcome to Real Life Counselling, Sydney

Feeling lost, overwhelmed or worried about tomorrow?

Under pressure or worn down?

Do the relationships most important to you feel strained or rocky?

Carrying past relationships into your current ones?

Retreating or reacting more than you'd like?

I can help you navigate difficult dynamics at work, with intimate partners, your social circle, family relationships or parenting -- providing a supportive space to explore your concerns, questions and feelings and find the right way forward. I offer strategies for managing anxiety, relational stress and trauma through listening to yourself and your body's experience, and for improving communication, connection and co-operation with others in your life.

If it's time for change, I'd love to hear from you.

More about me

Individual counselling with a relationship focus

Services & Specialities

Online Counselling from your Comfy Chair

My face-to-face counselling sessions can be provided online via Zoom, which is a secure video conferencing platform. I also offer telephone and some in-person sessions, either outdoor/walk & talk or indoor sessions following Covid-safe practices. You choose one or a combination of ways to connect.

Relationships and Communication

Counselling and therapy to better understand yourself in relationships. We can explore your experiences of relationship stress, patterns of interaction and what you bring to these dynamics from your earlier life. We'll look at how you connect and communicate with others and work towards your goals.

Stress, Change and Trauma

Counselling and therapy to support you with managing stress or coming to terms with the impacts of change and loss in your life.

If you have experienced trauma and are some way forward in your recovery process, online therapy may be for you.

Parenting and Family Life

Counselling, support and strategies for parents and carers looking for an outside eye on their child's behaviour, mental health or problems at school. I can coach you in handling tricky emotions and challenging behaviour, and help you strengthen, reset or repair your family relationships.
