Empowering people to make a positive change

I have had the immense privilege of working in the counselling field for over 17 years and am deeply passionate about empowering individuals to make meaningful, positive changes in order to live their best lives. I am a registered nurse and midwife and served as the Perinatal Loss Coordinator at the Mater Mothers' Hospital in Brisbane for over five years. My personal experience of losing my daughter, Ruby, in 2008 has fostered a profound empathy and a particular commitment to supporting families through the unique grief of perinatal loss.

In addition to this area of focus, I have extensive experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and relationship difficulties. I work from a compassionate, person-centred approach and am dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment for all clients.

Academically, I hold degrees in health management, psychology, nursing, and midwifery, along with a Graduate Certificate in Clinical Supervision, a Graduate Diploma of Counselling, and a Master of Counselling.

Outside of my professional life, I am a proud mother to three adult children and a devoted (and somewhat eccentric) dog owner.

I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work with you.
