... with humility, gentleness, and patience

Due to an unexpected increase in carer responsibilities,
I am unable to take any new clients for the foreseeable future.

Welcome!

I am a highly qualified educator and therapeutic support provider who specialises in helping individuals and families facing anxiety, ADHD, autism, depression, chronic illness, and related psychosocial challenges. I have spent a lifetime raising, loving, and mentoring three autistic children who daily rise to the challenge of multiple health conditions. We are a solid family unit—a mum (me), dad, and three young adult children—and we tackle most things together with intelligent planning, gracious endeavour, and a sense of humour.

I retired from my long-term, tenured, teaching-focussed university position when my [then 21-year-old] autistic son experienced his first episode of psychosis - just weeks before the world plunged into its battle against COVID-19. Since that fateful moment, I utilised my broad training in business management and education, as well as my theoretical knowledge of early brain development and personal development, to support and guide my son's psychosocial recovery. Today, my lived and carer experience has honed my professional philosophy toward the care and support of neurodiverse individuals. I have curated an evidence-based, sound, therapeutic approach toward assisting others when facing life's complexities and regaining a new sense of self.

With decades of experience as a tertiary lecturer, primary teacher, early childhood teacher, and counsellor, I provide person-centred support that fosters each client's self-esteem and resilience. I work intelligently, intuitively, gently, and collaboratively with my clients to understand their unique strengths and needs. Any coaching or therapeutic work happens together using a unique blend of counselling and hands-on practical support.

I have ONE goal: to help you BEGIN [again] and successfully navigate life's challenges.
