Finding Life's Balance. Together
 

About me

In my quest for happiness, I encountered a profound conflict between expectation and reality, a struggle familiar to many. I had envisioned a clear path for my life, only to find that reality often diverged from these scripted scenarios. This disparity between my aspirations and the actual unfolding of events left me wrestling with inner turmoil, frustration, and distress. Engaging in introspective exploration, I delved deeply into the intricate interplay of human thoughts and relationships. I witnessed firsthand how unmet expectations could give rise to a spectrum of negative emotions—from anger and jealousy to fear and violence. It dawned on me that fear, a potent emotion in my life, was invariably intertwined with various other concerns—be it the fear of disappointing loved ones, failing societal or familial standards, or falling short of personal aspirations. Through my personal evolution and professional development, I gradually grasped that genuine contentment doesn't stem from rigidly clinging to expectations or conforming to societal dictates. Rather, it entails embracing life's multifaceted nature with courage and empathy. It involves finding serenity amidst life's inherent unpredictability and mastering the art of navigating its ebbs and flows with resilience and grace.

My Approach

Based in Adelaide and offering online sessions, my therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in understanding human potential. Recognizing the limitations of traditional methods, I've crafted a more inclusive, somatic and holistic approach, drawing from modalities like Process-Oriented Psychology, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Art Therapy, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). This integration honors the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, providing clients with a comprehensive and empowering experience. Testimonials attest to the effectiveness of my approach, with one client expressing gratitude for the transformative impact on their life over several years. They commend the support across all life domains and the tools provided to navigate mental health challenges. Another client highlights the unique perspective and compassionate guidance offered, appreciating the non-judgmental environment fostered during sessions. As I continue to grow and evolve, my commitment to self-improvement remains steadfast. I am dedicated to guiding others on their journey of healing and transformation, understanding that true fulfilment lies not in reaching a destination but in embracing the journey, one step at a time.
