Adult Counselling for Anxiety, Overwhelm and Burnout
Support for adults who feel anxious, emotionally stretched, burnt out, stuck in painful patterns, or disconnected from themselves. Sessions are available online across Australia and in person on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
When life feels heavy, confusing, or harder than it should
You may be coping on the outside while feeling overwhelmed underneath. Perhaps your mind rarely switches off, your emotions feel intense, your relationships feel strained, or you keep finding yourself in the same patterns no matter how hard you try to change them.
Sometimes people come to counselling because anxiety, stress, burnout, or emotional overwhelm has become too much. Others come because something feels off, but they cannot fully explain why. You do not need to have everything figured out before starting.
Counselling can offer a space to slow down, feel supported, and begin making sense of what is happening beneath the surface.

A warm, integrative approach
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in both counselling and mind-body awareness. I draw from somatic therapy, CBT, ACT, solution-focused approaches, and attachment-based understanding, depending on what feels most supportive for you.
Together, we can explore not only what is happening in your thoughts and emotions, but also what may be happening in your body and nervous system. This can be especially helpful when anxiety, stress, or burnout feels bigger than words alone.
Therapy is not about fixing you. It is about helping you understand yourself more clearly, work with your patterns more gently, and find greater steadiness and ease.
