About
Welcome
This is a space where real conversations matter. A space where you're not expected to “be strong” or “get over it” — but simply to be yourself, in all the complexity that life can bring.
​
I come to this work both professionally and personally. I hold a degree in Psychology and a Diploma in Counselling with a focus in grief and loss — but just as importantly, I bring over 20 years of lived experience as a FIFO (Fly-In, Fly-Out) partner and the profound journey of being a survivor of suicide loss. I know what it means to live with invisible grief.
I know how heavy it can feel to carry so much
quietly. These experiences have shaped the way I show up in this space — with deep empathy, authenticity, and care.
Why This Work Matters to Me
Grief first found me early in life. Like many, I was taught to push it aside — to keep smiling, stay strong, and carry on for others. But pain that’s buried doesn’t go away. It lingers in the quiet moments, waiting to be heard.
​
I’ve learned that healing begins when we stop silencing our emotions and start honouring them. When we give ourselves permission to feel. To rest. To speak the truth of our experience.
​
This belief is at the heart of my work — that healing doesn’t come from fixing or forcing. It comes from being seen, supported, and given space to process in your own time.
​
How I Work
In a world that often rushes us toward quick fixes or surface-level solutions, I offer something slower — something deeper:
​
-
A safe, compassionate space where your story is heard and honoured
-
A pace that follows your readiness, not the world’s expectations
-
Support grounded in real connection, emotional clarity, and practical strategies
​
Whether you’re working through grief, burnout, a relationship breakdown, or a major life transition — I’ll be here beside you. Not with all the answers, but with genuine care and a steady presence.
​
I don’t focus on diagnoses or labels. Instead, I work from a place of conversation, connection, and tools that help you rebuild confidence, clarity, and self-trust.
​
Who I Support
I support people navigating:
​
-
Grief and loss (death, divorce, miscarriage, or ambiguous loss)
-
The emotional load of FIFO life and long-distance relationships
-
Burnout, fatigue, and feeling emotionally drained or disconnected
-
Major life changes like relocation, retirement, or job loss
-
Relationship struggles or loss of identity and direction
​
Most of my clients arrive feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply unsure where to begin. You don’t need to have the right words. You just need a place to start — and someone to walk alongside you.
​
This is Your Space
This is your permission to pause. To take a breath. To stop holding it all together.
​
You don’t need to be “ready” or have everything figured out to begin. Healing doesn’t have to be complicated — sometimes, one honest conversation is enough to start a shift.
​
If you’re looking for support that’s grounded, gentle, and real — I invite you to explore my services or reach out. We’ll take it one step at a time, at your pace, with honesty, empathy, and full respect for your journey.
​
I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
