Person-Centred Trauma-Informed Compassion-Focused

Individual Telehealth Therapeutic Counselling for Women anywhere in Australia.

My Therapeutic Approach

I’m trained in a counselling & psychotherapy approach that is primarily person-centred (humanistic) and informed by knowledge of human development and attachment theory - with understandings of the brain and based in trauma-informed and recovery-oriented practice.

  • I have learned about influences of temperament, environment and personality on individuals.

  • I understand there are a range of ways to diagnose and/or respond to client presentations and experiences.

  • Through specialist training in listening, relating and communication skills, I provide a reparative experience and a secure base for you to grow and address current and past issues.

The Soul Pharmacy exists so that no woman in Australia has to face her “dark night of the soul” alone.

Who I work With

The Soul Pharmacy welcomes adult women from all walks of life who are experiencing a problem in living, which is temporarily overwhelming their ability to thrive and flourish in the world.

These challenges might include a soul-sucking job, a relationship issue, a lack of confidence or self-esteem, a geographical move, a midlife transition, a significant loss, or an identity crisis.

I believe that these life trials can become transformative rites of passage. They bring us to points in our journeys where roads diverge, offering an opportunity to make significant changes in our lives.

No doubt, this can be a challenging and unsettling experience. The foundation on which you have built much of your life, relationships, or work is starting to shift. It is as if the canvas of your life painting needs to creak open and expand.

This is where our paths meet.

As a person-centred and trauma-informed counsellor, I will work collaboratively with you to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your circumstances, attend to and care for your mental and emotional wellbeing, and reconnect with your own wisdom and strengths – one conversation at a time.

With greater self-awareness and trust in yourself, you will become more empowered to make authentic and mindful changes, leading to a more balanced, satisfying, and meaningful life.

  • The soul needs space and time to unfold its wisdom and purpose.
